Kris Davis - Massive Threads (2013)

Kris Davis a pianist-composer who offers "uncommon creative adventure," says JazzTimes. Long favored by her peers and jazz fans, star pianist Jason Moran, who included her first solo record in his Best of 2012 piece in Art Forum, wrote: "A freethinking, gifted pianist on the scene, Davis lives in each note that she plays. Her range is impeccable; she tackles prepared piano, minimalism and jazz standards, all under one umbrella." The New York Times adds "Over the last couple of years in New York, one method for deciding where to hear jazz has been to track down the pianist Kris Davis."
