Third album from husband and wife duo of Alexi Erenkov and Alison Alderdice

Now, led by Hanh's pearls of wisdom, The Saxophones offer a further extension of grappling with mortality and the meaning of existence - this time via the second coming of parenthood. Whilst their melancholic debut Songs of the Saxophones was written amid the incessant rain of a northern Californian winter aboard the boat they lived on, and swells of emotion lapped upon buoyant follow-up Eternity Bay, their nocturnal third's cyclical nature looks at love (fostering and growing familial and romantic feelings that eventually transform and fade with time), art and passing creativity, and self-reflecting as they consider the life cycle of raising their two young children. Written in their family home between calm moments once the kids had gone to bed, To Be A Cloud is attuned to the peaceful bay of Inverness, California where Alison's family has lived for several generations. 'It's where we are most at home and creative,' Alexi says. 'There, the ocean and nearby beaches are endlessly inspiring.' So integral to the album, Shell Beach in Tomales Bay is also where the artwork photo (see below) was taken. 'I love Alison's expression - direct eye contact from the mysterious beauty... like the cover of a Martin Denny album.'
