Dance Ancestral is the fifth album on Stones Throw from producer, composer and keyboardist John Carroll Kirby on Stones Throw. The latest addition to Kirby’s fast-growing and distinctive body of work, Dance Ancestral sees the acclaimed solo artist teaming up with Canadian producer Yu Su for an album whose central theme is the “intuitive dance†we perform throughout our lives. More electronically focused than Kirby’s previous albums, the result is a vividly imagined yet eminently listenable instrumental record.
