I’ve been a huge fan of JK Kim since Colin Stranahan told me about him a couple of years ago. He has a beautiful way of playing dense grooves while keeping them dynamic, musical, and relaxed.
I keep up with most of the projects he’s a part of, but what I’m currently drawn to is his playing with Aaron Parks. The music is gorgeous and has such a deep flow. I think the first thing I heard was a live recording that Aaron Parks recorded on his iPhone and released on Bandcamp: Live in Berlin – Little Big.
The band has been out on tour over the last few months and there have been a lot of great videos available. At the end of the post is a nice drum cam version of one of the tunes. I feel so lucky that we live in this era where shows are recorded at such high quality and available online.
Enjoy.
