THIS ALBUM is the result of years of
A SPECIAL THANKS to the composers
effort and determination, as it was developed over the course of an entire pandemic, personnel changes, and years of tumultuous times. We could not be more grateful for the Kinds of Kings composers for their commitment to this collaboration, their generosity, and their trust (and for letting us spend quality time with their dogs). As an ensemble that prides itself on meaningful and intimate collaborations, this album celebrates Nois’ effort to encourage curiosity, build friendships, and have fun doing it.
Gemma, Maria, and Shelley for sharing your dedication and artistry with us, Brandon Quarles for your leadership in helping create this project, Mike Tierney for going to heaven and back to help make this project work, our supporters who chipped in to make this possible, and our families for their endless support.
