The L.A.-based band SML have finally released an album that captures them doing what they do best, spontaneous music live, which not coincidentally is the title of their new album and also reveals what "SML" actually stands for. Recorded at the club Zebulon in Los Angeles on December 3, 2025, they perform in the round, like they did at Big Ears last March.
While their previous albums have featured either short studio performances or brief excerpts from live shows, Spontaneous Music Live contains two extended live tracks, The Drums and Roundabouts, so one can hear how ideas develop, grow, and change in the course of performance. It's SML finally as the way they should be heard, and how I hope they'll record in the future.
