How on earth did we not notice this free EP by Nicolay (of Foreign Exchange) earlier this month? ‘Shibuya Session EP’ is a collaboration between Nicolay and the Raleigh-based exploratory jazz trio The Hot At Nights, led by 8-string guitar virtuoso (and The Foreign Exchange guitarist) Chris Boerner with Matt Douglas on sax/woodwinds and Nick Baglio on drums.

Music: Nicolay & The Hot At Nights – Crossing

The EP features new interpretations and arrangements of eight instrumental compositions from Nicolay’s 2009 album City Lights Vol. 2: Shibuya. At the top of 2012, the collaboration between Nicolay and The Hot At Nights extends to the stage as well. The four musicians will hit the road extensively to perform the ‘Shibuya Session’ material live in an intimate setting. The tour is also in support of The Hot At Night’s current album, Nice Talk.
