From Fog of Forgiveness (FEF76) 
https://fortevilfruit.bandcamp.com/album/fog-of-forgiveness
The music of New York-born multi-instrumentalist Eric Mingus spans across jazz, blues, rock and poetry. Besides his solo output, he's done a wide range of session, live and collaborative work as a vocalist and bassist, with Carla Bley, Karen Mantler, Hubert Sumlin, Levon Helm, Gavin Friday and Elliott Sharp among many others. Now resident in West Cork, his recent activity includes ongoing duo projects with saxophonist Catherine Sikora and guitarist Knox Chandler . 
Fog of Forgiveness takes his music on a new and exploratory tangent, and is unusually minimal and non-verbal. The album consists of guitar improvisations, solo voice recordings that variously recall field hollers and sound poetry, and multi-tracked, harmonic-rich vocal drone pieces. The effect throughout is primal but understated and profoundly solitary, and underpinned with a blues sensibility.

Eric Mingus - Man, It's Scary

This is the first track of the album 'Chrysalis', released November 2018, a duo project with Eric Mingus. This is a a suite of pieces that derive their inspiration from the world of butterflies, and specifically from Vladimir Nabokov’s study of Lepidoptera. It is a dive into the existence of tiny, light and incredibly fragile creatures, delicate and lovely and yet somehow able to survive in this world, able to migrate huge distances, and, of course, to metamorphose.
