‘Alluvial Fans’ is a multi-layered piece with different elements and sounds that create a dynamic texture.
The song clocks in a little over five minutes. Starting with a very soft, gentle intro of all the instruments, led by guitars and an oboe, the song evolves into a sweet and uplifting melody.
‘Alluvial Fans’ could perfectly fit as cinematographic soundtrack material, with its bold, inspiring rhythmical succession of notes.
The song’s music video on Youtube has already got +15K views. While some of his previous work, like ‘Hot Apple Stuff’, has currently got +24K streams on Spotify.
Throughout the music video, you can witness how connected and how much the group enjoys making music and playing together.
‘Alluvial Fans’ is the first release before issuing Mark’s latest album: ‘In The Rain Shadow’. The group behind it is ‘Mark Vickness Interconnected’, with musicians including two-time Grammy-winning violinist Mads Tolling; Matt Renzi (oboe/English horn/saxophone); Joseph Hebert (cello); Dan Feiszli (bass); Grammy award-winning percussionist MB Gordy and tabla virtuoso Ty Burhoe.
Based in Bishop, California, Mark Vickness Interconnected is a powerful group that covers styles and genres from all over the globe: Acoustic, Jazz, World, Classical, and Instrumental, just to name a few.
“I formed the group Mark Vickness Interconnected in 2019. As a composer, this is my dream ensemble. There is almost no style of music, no musical culture or era that we cannot draw from–, says Mark about his dream team.
“We have a classical trio (violin, cello, oboe), a jazz quartet, percussion instruments from almost every continent and culture, and virtuoso players capable of playing pretty much anything I put in front of them.”
Scheduled for the Fall of 2022, the album ‘In The Rain Shadow’ is inspired mainly by moving to the high desert of California’s Owens Valley.
Rich, lively and authentic. ‘Alluvial Fans’ promises and sets the rank high for the upcoming album. The professionalism, talent and expertise shown by Mark Vickness Interconnected are superior.
