    Career

    edit

    With bassist Sam Wilkes, Gendel released the live jazz album Music for Saxofone & Bass Guitar in 2018.[3] Gendel co-wrote the tracks "Flower Moon" and "Spring Snow" on Vampire Weekend's 2019 album, Father of the Bride.[4] He also recorded a 20 minute, 21 second-long version of Vampire Weekend's "2021" for the EP 40:42.[5]

    In March 2020, Gendel released his first album with Nonesuch Records, Satin Doll, which was described as "a futuristic homage to historical jazz."[6] In an interview with The Fader's David Renshaw, Gendel claimed that "putting out a 'normal' album just doesn't work for [him]."[7] In 2021, he released the three-hour-long album Fresh Bread, consisting of 52 tracks that were recorded between 2012 and 2020.[8] His 2023 album Cookup reinterprets R&B classics and received a 7.0 from Pitchfork.[9]

    It has been heavily speculated that Gendel is a member of avant-garde musical duo Clown Core.[10][11]
