A Massachusetts native and graduate of both Harvard and Berklee, Kyle Nasser has been described as possessing, "superlative musicianship as a performer, writer and a bandleader…ardent creativity and urbane artistic composure” (Hrayr Attarian, All About Jazz). Since moving to New York City in 2010, he has played at some of the city's most prestigious venues (Blue Note, Smalls, Iridium, 55 Bar, and Cornelia St. Cafe), released a critically acclaimed solo album (Restive Soul), and toured in the U.S. and South America. Nasser has shared the stage with jazz luminaries such as Jim Hall, Hank Jones, Joe Lovano, Dave Douglas, Rich Perry, Ethan Iverson, Michael Formanek, Steve Cardenas, and Ben Monder, among others. In addition to leading his own group, he also plays with and composes for the international collective Beekman, whose sound - as captured on their three albums - has been described as "a joyful and continued speculation flowing in almost all facts with surprising ease" (Jazz, ese ruido).
Nasser's new release "Persistent Fancy" features his working sextet: Roman Filiu on alto, Jeff Miles on guitar, Dov Manski on piano, Nick Jost on bass, and Allan Mednard on drums.
