Immersive Audio Album picked Humans In A Room as a top pick for a Grammy nomination this year having this to say about the project: , "rdquo" -> Willy Porter's Humans In A Room is the gorgeous result of a collaboration between four musicians, a microphone company, and a shared desire to record as simply as possible while giving the end listener a seat in the middle of the recording session." The show will utilize a unique immersive playback system they have been developing to replicate the studio recording in live performance.
