"The world is a swirling collection of objects passing through space and time. As humans, we have our own orbits that intersect with others as we live in the world.'Animate Object' explores the idea of different musical orbits coming together to create something unexpected," says Jon Stickley. "With the addition of Hunter, theTrio's orbit has shifted, opening our minds to an uncharted musical universe that we are having fun exploring."
This is the first in a series of singles that the Jon Stickley Trio and OrganicRecords plan to release in the upcoming months leading up to a full collection of music to come in Spring of 2020.

About The Jon Stickley Trio Jon Stickley Trio is a genre-defying and cinematic instrumental trio, whose deep grooves, innovative flatpicking, and sultry-spacy violin move the listener's head, heart, and feet. "It's not your father's acoustic-guitar music-although Stickley's pop showed him his first chords when he was 12 years old. Instead, Stickley's Martin churns out a mixture of bluegrass, Chuck Berry, metal, prog, grunge, and assorted other genres-all thoroughly integrated into a personal style," writes Guitar Player Magazine. With inspiration ranging from Green Day to Duran Duran to Tony Rice to Nirvana, Grateful Dead, David Grisman and beyond, the Trio, which features violinist Lyndsay Pruett and drummer Hunter Deacon, is making waves with their unique sound. Along with releasing two full length albums and one EP in the past few years, the Trio has zig-zagged the nation, though they still call Asheville, NC home. Stickley says, "The Trio feels fresher and hotter than ever, we've hit our stride in terms of creating tunes that are uniquely us and that's a really exciting place to be musically."
