Unexpected Guests is a collection of odds and ends -- songs unearthed during the brutal lockdown months. One track was originally a beat for a hip-hop artist, another is a track originally recorded nearly 20 years ago and rebuilt from the ground up, yet another was rescued from a film soundtrack that was never finished, much less released. This EP lets these songs breathe again and see the light of day.
