Rachel Grimes / 12.18.09 / Detroit

December 17, 2009

Rachel Grimes closes out 2009 with a concert this Friday, Dec. 18, at Detroit Institute of Arts, where she’ll perform selections from her new solo piano album, Book Of Leaves. In today’s edition of The Detroit Free-Press music columnist Mark Stryker says of Grimes’ work, “Her best pieces emit a reflective yet focused shimmer that seems like a plea for peace in a world that moves too fast and loud for its own good.”

Book of Leaves vinyl LP is available here at karatebodyrecords.com and it as well as the CD version are in independent record stores nationwide. It is sold digitally in the United States through Think Indie. In Europe, Book of Leaves is out now on RuminanCe Records.
