Horizon is the product of longtime friends, Chicago-based musicians Matt Gold (a seasoned multi-instrumentalist and accomplished guitarist who’s worked with Makaya McCraven, Jamila Woods, and Greg Ward) and Will Miller (the acclaimed trumpeter, composer, and producer who leads Resavoir and has worked with SZA, Whitney, and more) collaborating and combining their distinct compositional sensibilities.

What started as a love letter to their shared affinity for ‘60s and ‘70s Brazilian music evolved into a dynamic and sprawling body of work. The two had bonded over an admiration for guitarist Luiz Bonfá and songwriter Milton Nascimento, especially the latter’s work with Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter, so they decided to use nylon string guitar as a starting point for collaborative sessions.

“Canopy,” which opens Horizon and is available as a lead single across all digital music platforms today, was the first piece they created together. The track opens with bright acoustic chords, before the song slowly unfurls into a slinking groove with bird sounds, strings, and fluttering leads from soprano saxophonist Tim Bennett.
