Featuring Canadian born pianist Dana Reason in her first leader role, the trio is anchored by the veteran rhythm section of Montreal based drummer John Heward and bassist Dominic Duval. The trio came together with a performance at the Suonie per il Popolo Festival in Montreal in 2004. Revealed features three compositions by Reason and 3 collective improvisations and a composition by Duval.

More about the Dana Reason Trio

"Dana Reason plays the piano the way a gem-cutter approaches a precious stone. With breathless precision and a sure, meticulous touch, she taps away at raw material in which someone else might not see a work of art waiting to be born."
-Derk Richardson, San Francisco Guardian

"Reason's trio unveils new possibilities of rhythm and tonality, burrowing deep into the process of music-making itself. She revels in the beatuty of looking at music from skewed angles."
-Mark Athitakis, East Bay Express
