Originally from Portland, and with yearslong detours around the Pacific Northwest, singer/songwriter Ben Estrada has been recording and releasing music as a solo effort since 2020. His forthcoming EP marks the first time Estrada has brought in outside collaborators- Estrada's otherworldly arrangements have gone from largely electronic to more expansive, organic instrumentals. Software synths and filtered 808 loops have been swapped out for saxophone and drumset. Upon relocating to Eugene, Estrada reconnected with keyboardist Delos Erickson, a longtime friend who assisted in assembling a group of seasoned local players to contribute to Estrada's solo compositions.
