A collective of four Seattle-based improvisers of diverse backgrounds and influences.

More an improvising framework than a band, Spontanea recorded its first album, Flow, in 2018,
a freewheeling tapestry of quartets, trios, duets and solos linked together in a single narrative.
A second album is soon to be released in 2020.
