Ben Tweedt- Life Cycle (PREORDER)
Originally from Council Bluffs, IA, and now based in Cincinnati, OH, Tweedt presents a deeply personal yet universally resonant project-an exploration of life's recurring themes, told through his signature blend of intricate composition and intuitive improvisation. "The album's title carries dual significance," Tweedt explains. "It reflects both my own place within the great life cycle and the broader idea that everything-relationships, politics, nature-moves in cycles. Even my compositions mirror this, built around circular and swirling forms rather than linear structures." Tweedt's music is as eclectic as his influences, which range from jazz greats like Hermeto Pascoal, Ahmad Jamal, Herbie Hancock, and Chick Corea to global folk traditions and classical music. The result is a sound that blends singable melodies, intricate rhythms, and vibrant harmonies, creating an immersive and flowing musical experience.Track List Back to School Flow Out Iowão Otherscape Chasing Ghosts Warrio
