Million Seller has been played on NTS shows including Kit Records, with Hornets first played on 22 October 2023.

Million Seller is led by Matt Calvert, one of the founding members of the underground alt-rock group Three Trapped Tigers. The inspiration for the project was a collection of early 70s releases by Herbie Hancock’s Mwandishi group. “The concept of Million Seller was to create a contemporary sound with similar elements to the Mwandishi band, putting the electronics and percussion at the forefront, merging organic and synthetic.”

Calvert is joined by Ståle Storløkken of free-form experimental group Supersilent, improvisor Matthew Bourne, drummer Dave Smith, and a trio of guest musicians: Mamadou Sarr on sabar and djembe drums, Kadialy Koudate on kora, and Sam Wilson on contemporary percussion.
