Album Premiere: Square Peg Round Hole _Juniper_

March 22, 2016



Juniper
is the latest album from the instrumental percussion-driven trio Square Peg Round Hole. The Pennsylvania-based band, comprised of Evan Chapman, Sean M. Gill, and Carlos Pacheco-Perez evoke a range of emotions on Juniper, the follow-up to 2013’s Corners. Chapman explains, “Because we are an instrumental group, our hope is that people connect with the songs and assign their own meanings to them. Without lyrics telling the listener how to feel, it leaves the music as an open-ended question.” They wrote the material in a rural Maryland cabin and in remote Wisconsin at farm-turned-music center Birch Creek. “There is a large, resonant space where we performed at Birch Creek called Juniper Hall,” Chapman adds, “which is actually where we came up with the name for the album.” Today we premiere Juniper, which is now available for pre-order in advance of its March 25 release.
