Kris Davis: Good Citizen
by Mark F. Turner
It's just a coincidence that pianist Kris Davis has had three stunning trio recordings released in 2010. There are the two on Clean Feed Records--Paradoxial Frog, a brilliant joint collaboration with drummer Tyshawn Sorey and saxophonist Ingrid Laubrock; and Three by the SKM trio, with Davis joined by saxophonist Stephen Gauci and bassist Michael Bisio. But ...
Ingrid Laubrock: Anti-House
by Nic Jones
Ingrid Laubrock's trajectory through the music reflects her choice of home. German-born, when she resided in London she was producing Latin jazz, but that proved to be only a passing phase. By the time of Forensic (F-IRE, 2004), it was clear that she was more intent on carving out an idiosyncratic space of her own. Now, ...
Ingrid Laubrock: Anti-House
by Chris May
Her music has grown exponentially in the intervening years, but there are passages on saxophonist Ingrid Laubrock's Anti-House which resonate strongly with her 2004 album, Forensic (F-IRE), the disc which announced her emergence as a soloist and bandleader of propitious substance and originality. The connection is the beat. Until now, Laubrock's post-Forensic albums, notably Sleepthief (Intakt, ...
Kris Davis / Ingrid Laubrock / Tyshawn Sorey: Paradoxical Frog
by Chris May
There's so much music bursting out of saxophonist Ingrid Laubrock, and her cultural reference points are so diverse, that you never quite know, as you take a disc out of the sleeve for the first time, what she's going to be up to--aside from going further. The intriguing Paradoxical Frog contains more surprises. Among ...

Kris Davis: Rye Eclipse
by AAJ Italy Staff
Ecco un talento da seguire con attenzione. La pianista canadese Kris Davis opera a New York dagli inizi del decennio e dopo una prima fase legata a modelli neo-bop (evidente nel suo primo disco, Lifespan), ha iniziato ad esplorare territori più aperti, formando questo quartetto nel 2002 con il marito batterista Jeff Davis, il formidabile sassofonista ...

Kris Davis: Rye Eclipse

Featuring her husband, drummer Jeff Davis, omnipresent bassist Eivind Opsvik and Downtown saxophone phenomenon Tony Malaby, this is the Brooklyn-based pianist's second recording with her reliable quartet and the third for the ...
