Abe Beeson spoke with saxophonist Ben Wendel recently about the new quintet release that re-imagines his year-long 2015 duets project The Seasons. We talked about his connection to the Northwest, his love of classic hip hop, studying music at the Eastman School, forming Kneebody and developing the band's sound in a rock club, the inspiration for The Seasons project, details on a few of those duets and how the music was conceived, reaching the audience in the 21st Century and a LOT MORE.
