Asteroid Ekosystem, the brainchild of pianist and composer Alister Spence, is a supergroup for the 21st century bringing together four of the country’s most acclaimed and talented musicians. Spence; the leader of contemporary jazz group, the Alister Spence Trio and touring keyboardist with The Aints! and Laughing Clowns; bassist Lloyd Swanton of jazz giants The Necks (and formerly of The Catholics); world class percussionist Toby Hall on drums; and the legendary and pioneering Ed Kuepper; guitarist and founding member of The Saints, Laughing Clowns, The Aints! and a solo career that has stretched 37 years.

Asteroid Ekosystem Live is the second album by this remarkable band. The album was recorded during run of concerts at the Great Club in Sydney following a year of touring. Asteroid Ekosystem Live showcases the band in full flight: the seamless blending of Ed Kuepper's exploratory guitar playing, Alister's wide roaming piano forays, and the musical intuition, inventiveness, and experience that Alister, Lloyd, and Toby share after 30 years of performance together. You can hear the band's sound expanding, pushing forward into new possibilities. Forget the sky; the cosmos is the limit!
