The Phillip Golub Quintet is a new project of Brooklyn, NY-based pianist and composer Phillip Golub. The quintet’s debut album, called “Abiding Memory”, is slated for release on June 21, 2024. The record will come out jointly on Berthold Records (Germany) and Endectomorph Music (USA).
The music is stylistically unique, employing an electric guitar and a cello alongside piano, bass, and drums. His wide-ranging influences come into contact, conflict, and marriage, producing a music that reflects on a desire to live in an imagined past. But instead of being stuck in the past, the music is “stuck in the present.” Themes and ideas are recycled and repurposed throughout our set, creating a sensation for the listener that feels like the act of remembering. Their set isn’t made up of “tunes” but rather one through-composed suite of interwoven movements.
