"All four of us sat in the front row for my friend Carrie Frey’s album release concert, held at the tiny musician-owned Inwood coffee shop Kuro Kirin. The vibes had an impeccable coziness, and Carrie absolutely shredded on a program she’d commissioned from top to bottom. That was the kind of room where you can actually strike up a conversation with anyone in the audience — a rare joy."

I had such a great time talking to Saad Haddad about my music! This episode is called "Turtle Rhythms, Sloppy Unisons, and Physicality" which kind of sums it all up.

"This is a highly evocative work filled with mesmerizing sonic effects, transporting listeners to a far-away place in their imaginations. It takes a special ensemble to realize these qualities in actual performance, and The Rhythm Method nailed it! This is the work of an intelligent composer who not only knows her craft, but the ways to exploit her expert knowledge of the possibilities of the instruments to great advantage. No disrespect to any of the other composers, but this was far and away this listener’s favorite work of the evening."
