"The Suite Unraveling is a progressive jazz and contemporary music ensemble helmed by guitarist and composer Lily Maase. Founded in 2005 when she first moved to Brooklyn, NY, the group has been the fruit of Lily’s experiments in modern improvisation, driven by equal parts synaesthezia, contemporary song structures and the immersive power of rock and roll.
In John Zorn’s words:
Brooklyn-based Lily Maase is a guitarist and composer of powerful originality. Influenced equally by Ornette Coleman, Morbid Angel and electronic music, she has created a modern jazz-rock fusion that captures the funky edge of Blood Ulmer with minimalism, indie rock and a touch of psychedelics."
