At the suggestion of writer Jon Morgan, Canadian drummer Dylan van der Schyff played in duo with John Butcher on the 2000 Vancouver Jazz Festival.
The next day they recorded Points, Snags and Windings for Morgan's Meniscus label.
Later concerts have been at London's Vortex club, and back in Vancouver in 2001.

2007 revived their musical relationship in a trio with bassist Torsten Müller, when they again played on the Vancouver Jazz Festival.
Now with a life of it's own, this trio played Edmonton and Seattle in Dec 2007 - and will be back on the West Coast summer 2008.
