The Adelaide-born bassist\/composer has been a first call for LA tour and studio work since relocating there in 2014 – racking up credits with notables across the experimental, jazz, and pop worlds alike – but their most notable contributions to the burgeoning LA scene have been as a member of both Jeff Parker's ETA IVtet and rising proto-trance supergroup SML, who Pitchfork says \"represents the thrilling next phase of a vibrant L.A. community.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"I had just gotten off of a bunch of touring at the end of 2022 and just wanted to write music,\" says Butterss. \"The best way for me to do that, I've found, is to set myself a discreet and focused task.\" The compositions are tightly constructed and melodically realized well in advance of production. Here they reconvene with longtime collaborators: Ben Lumsdaine (drums, guitar, production), Josh Johnson (sax), and Gregory Uhlmann (guitar), plus a smoking guest appearance from Jeff Parker. From the Robbie-Shakespeare-in-groove-mode intro to the album opener \"Bishop\" to the spacious cinematic doom of \"Seeing You,\" there is a lot to wrangle into one cohesive concept. On Mighty Vertebrate, Butterss and crew do just that.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor fans of:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ambrose Akinmusire, Tomoko Sauvage, Irreversible Entanglements\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"International Anthem","offers":[{"title":"Green\/Grey Marbled Colour Vinyl","offer_id":62015581225228,"sku":null,"price":25.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/4459\/3932\/files\/12bar-annabutterss-mightyvertebrate-internationalanthem.jpg?v=1785759307","url":"https:\/\/12-bar.com\/products\/anna-butterss-mighty-vertebrate-2026-reissue","provider":"12 Bar Music and Social","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
