Enjoy Your Rabbit

In honor of the Year of the Rabbit, which began February 3rd of this year, NCM presents a rather different take on an early Sufjan Stevens piece, "Enjoy Your Rabbit." I've been a fan of this track for some time and have wanted to do something interesting with it for about as long. And with the help of the Bard College Contemporary Jazz Ensemble last December, magic happened.

Special thanks to Erica Lindsay and Stefan Superti, who stepped in and up at the last minute to record this through over four hours of setup and technical difficulties.

Audio mixed by Erica Lindsay.

The Bard Contemporary Jazz Ensemble is:
Wyatt Anthony
Jesse Featherstone
Greg Giovine
Matt Kelly
Todd Li
Ryan MacLean
Benji Marx
Zach Seman
Joe Tisdale
Dan Vernam
