omposer/guitarist Kimi Reith takes advantage of the delightfully bare
sonorities of jazz-guitar trio through the combination of bold chord choices
and an understated hollow-body guitar technique. By writing the melodies
first and then creating the harmonic progression to support it, she often
comes upon unique changes that encourage the players to explore uncharted
sonic territories during their solos. Bassist Bruce Grafrath and drummer
Kevin Green act as the perfect complements to Reith's cool, post-bop style
of composing and playing.
