about

NÜTOOTS is a collaborative interdisciplinary recording project that I initiated in 2021. I commissioned 9 composers to write various pieces of music for me (3 solo, 3 duo, and 3 trio works) in both the acoustic and electroacoustic styles. The overarching themes of the project include friendship, collaboration, wholesomeness, and breaking the traditions/status quo of solo & chamber music. The works in this LP feature music written and performed/recorded with friends I’ve made over the past 12+ years.

This album is dedicated to my late-father, John Gorder, my younger brother, Charlie Gorder, and my beloved dog, Kelby.
