Forgetting You Is Like Breathing Water, is a duo comprised of trumpeter Will Evans and guitarist, synthesist, producer and multi-instrumentalist Theo Trump who bring together elements of ambient, jazz, and post-rock into ruminative and cinematic improvised music.

The patient, crystalline chords that swell and resonate like a series of confessions; the textured brass murmurs that suggest a ’60s or ’70s Fire Music master at their most poignant. Provocative found-sound experiments threading arcane religious recordings through dystopian soundscapes. Ear-shattering free-noise tumult.

“Playing like a collaboration between Arve Henriksen and Loren Mazzacane Connors, Will Evans and Theo Trump’s debut is a whip-smart fusion of powdery ambience, low-key Americana and tempered free jazz.” – Boomkat
