O’s Notes: The core of House of Waters is Max ZT (hammered dulcimer) and Moto Fukushima (6-sting bass). They’ve been together for over 16 years integrating the sounds of India, Senegal, Japan, and the Americas. They from a trio with drummer Antonio Sanchez for On Becoming. The music is open, airy, and relaxing, centered around Max. Fukushima steps up on “Tsumamiori”. Guest artists Mike Stern (g) and Priya Darshini (vocals) appear on “Hang In The Air” and “The Wall” respectively. They’ve created a unique, appreciable sound!
