Product Description
With the release of In Many Ways, the new CD from Philos Music, Perista takes the bold step of making their first musical debut. The band's originality soars across musical traditions, taking melodies and rhythms from jazz, Latin, Greek, and other American styles. Perista's band members exhibit their collective talents with stunning performances and a fresh attitude that makes a powerful statement. Reaching beyond the stagnant sounds of mainstream popular music, this young band from Olympia, Washington provokes an authentic and charismatic response from their audiences. Seeking to reinvent the contemporary sounds of a decidedly post-modern Jazz era, 23 year old band leader Kosta Lois experiments with melodic ideas that vary from beautiful tonal melodies to abstract avant-garde ideas and harmonies embracing the roots of 20th century art music. Perista's recent advance has attracted widespread attention and a following that promises to cultivate a renewed appreciation for new jazz.
