Boasting a 75+ album career as a leader, David performs with the creative energy and searching invention of musicians half his age. While Reuben Bradley and Dixon Nacey match him phrase for phrase, and note for note, their keenly attentive focus on Friesen is palpable on every track.

Another Time Another Place owes much of its drive and intensity to the fact that this music was created in the moment before an audience hanging on every note. It’s the sort of visceral energy that only comes from the creative concentration of playing before an audience, especially when that audience is sitting literally inches away.
