Welcome Reynold's Newest: What It Is

What It Is was born from several Spring 2007 sessions as preparation for a solo gig scheduled for early Summer. This new work is primarily first takes, which preserves the spontianeity which is usually only found in live performances.

The thirteen tracks are an energetic mixture of originals and standards with the selections grounded in both improvistational excitement and the desire to take risks to embrace the feeling which only comes when the artist embraces "what it is" and makes the moment their own.
