New# review today: "It is an unfortunate quirk of fate or timing that only now are we covering a release by #KrisDavis under her own name. Her 2019 album Diatom Ribbons is exceptional and should be in the collection of anyone who likes boundary-pushing jazz. Run the Gauntlet sees her leading a trio with #RobertHurst (bass) and #JohnathanBlake (drums), and there is no hint of cocktail #PianoTrio #jazz here." #ExposeOnline #AvantJazz #StringQuartet #LutosławskiQuartet http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/kris-davis-run-the-guantlet-the-solastalgia-suite-2.html

Union is the second album by Paradoxical Frog, a collective trio consisting of pianist Kris Davis, saxophonist Ingrid Laubrock and drummer Tyshawn Sorey. It was recorded in 2011 and released on the Portuguese Clean Feed label.

Martin Longley of the BBC commented: ".. Sometimes the trio can perform in a completely improvising frame of mind, but this recording inserts a significant ratio of composed themes, naturally infused with more spontaneous diversions. Each member contributes their own pieces... All spheres are open to the Frog."

The Free Jazz Collective's Paolo Casertano called the album "fascinating," and remarked: "Every musician takes his time to distil few powerful notes... This is, among the trio releases I've been lately listening to, maybe the closest to a spoken conversation. I have no other words to describe it." - Wikipedia

Paradoxical Frog is the eponymous debut album by a collective trio consisting of Kris Davis on piano, Ingrid Laubrock on tenor sax and Tyshawn Sorey on drums. It was recorded in 2009 and released on the Portuguese Clean Feed label.

The 5-star All About Jazz review by Chris May notes that, "Despite its instrumentation, a good portion of the album is reminiscent of piano/bass/drums trio The Necks at its most spacious and unhurried."

The editors of NPR Music included the album in their feature "The Best New Jazz Of 2010 (So Far)", and reviewer Lars Gotrich noted that the musicians "share a similar approach to abstract jazz composition and execution: loose and unfolding like a flowering tea, yet full of unexpected color." - Wikipedia
