There’s no way to mistake the excitement in Greg Jarvis‘ voice when the Flowers of Hell frontman talks about his band’s travel plans next summer. “The plan is to record in the Congo with this great orchestra we found out there,” Jarvis tells Spinner. “It’s this 100-piece African orchestra with this 100-piece African choir — while they don’t play with German precision, they play with African soul, and so they’re great people to work with.”
But as the London-based musician continues to speak about the trip — which enables the collective to work with producer and Bowery Electric member Lawrence Chandler on ‘Symphony Number One,’ the follow up the recently released ‘O’ — his hesitation about heading to the Congo becomes apparent.
And rightfully so — Jarvis was taken hostage in Papua New Guinea earlier this year.
