BURNING AMBULANCE LAUNCHES NEW INITIATIVE

Site Celebrates Its 10th Anniversary With Exclusive Compilation;

Announces Record Label To Launch In 2021| November 2020

Burning Ambulance, the arts and culture zine and website founded in 2010 by journalist Philip Freeman and artist I.A. Freeman, has grown over the last decade from a small print zine to a website and, beginning in 2017, a podcast offering in-depth interviews with musicians from the worlds of jazz, metal, and modern classical music. Now BA is celebrating 10 years of existence by expanding again, this time starting a label, Burning Ambulance Music, which will release its first CDs in 2021.

As an announcement, celebration, and fundraiser, BA is putting out Eyes Shut, Ears Open: A Burning Ambulance Compilation on Friday, October 2, only on Bandcamp. The digital-only set includes 13 exclusive tracks from artists including saxophonist Mats Gustafsson; pianist Aaron Parks; improvising Black music ensemble Burnt Sugar the Arkestra Chamber; saxophonist Melissa Aldana; drummer Whit Dickey and pianist Matthew Shipp; saxophonist Ivo Perelman and trumpeter Nate Wooley; bassist Melvin Gibbs; jazz/grindcore duo Dead Neanderthals; violinist Jason Kao Hwang; and more. Most of the $10 purchase price will raise funds for future Burning Ambulance Music releases, but 25% of the money raised will be donated to the Jazz Foundation of America’s Musicians’ Emergency Fund, which provides housing assistance, medical care, and financial assistance to musicians.
