Exosphere, “outside, external, beyond,” is an atmosphere merging with interplanetary space. Highlighting haiku composed by haiku-scholar Richard Gilbert, the expansive nature of each poem is expressively integrated into the fabric of the music. Coursing with the ebb and flow of Gilbert’s immersive guitar phrasing and the expert drum work of Adam Bowman, the listener is drawn into an unparalleled exo-planetary journey.
