about

Fireside Brass is a collection of our favorite holiday music: cherished songs from our childhoods, recent musical discoveries, and old standbys from the annual holiday house concerts we’d host in the living room of our Harlem apartment in our earliest days as a band. Some of the pieces we left relatively unadorned, while others were abstracted and personalized with a unique Westerlies touch. All of the music here was captured with a meticulous attention to detail and a spirit of spontaneity and improvisation. We hope this album brings you a sense of warmth, intimacy, and joy — from our fireside to yours.
