Side-Eye III+

III+ continues the loose Side-Eye concept with a larger group around Pat Metheny on guitar, joined by keyboards, bass, drums, harp, accordion, percussion, and voices. On paper that lineup promises color and contrast, and musically the album often leans toward the classic Pat Metheny Group aesthetic.

The writing follows a familiar path. Lyrical melodies, layered arrangements, and grooves that unfold gradually rather than explode.
