The Kris Hansen Kollective
"Hansen and Giusti's latest effort (with friend Richard Ribb on bass) is titled Kris Hansen's Left Hand Band Presents The Kollective, and Hansen intends to proudly roll with the Kollective moniker until further notice. "The Kollective is not a set unit but a set core with changing performers" states the website (MySpace.com/KrisHansenMusic), so who knows who or what to expect at upcoming gigs...a tight-knit jazzy/folky-type trio. Their 08 self-titled debut (at CDbaby.com and iTunes) zigged and zagged across acoustic blues and roots-rock, with Hansen's pen celebrating a second chance at life after the Scituate native battled a near-fatal brain aneurysm on the eve of his 24th birthday" (From the Providence Phoenix (August 12, 2009) - Chris Conti) |
