Forest Standards Volume Four is the new album from Wichita musician David Lord. It's also the last in a series of records that Lord began making in Los Angeles in 2018 with producer Chris Schlarb. Each album takes up themes of the natural world and allows Lord to reimagine the idea of a jazz standard. KMUW's Jedd Beaudoin recently spoke with David Lord and has more.
