MXD

Sewing the seeds planted by a previous collaboration, Donny McCaslin (3x Grammy-nominated saxophonist) and Ryan Dahle (Limblifter, Mounties) reunite for a full-length collaborative effort under the McCaslin-Dahle moniker. Entitled MXD, the album is a set of 9 sprawling epics adorned with bubbling electronica synths, McCaslin's celestial saxophone, and Dahle's singular vocals. It contains traces of the duo's acclaimed solo works, building on each other's strengths while incorporating contributions from mixer Dave Fridmann and a band of world-renowned musicians to catapult the songs to an even higher level. The album arrives May 22, 2026, via Canadian indie label We Are Busy Bodies.
