The Herbie Nichols Project
The Herbie Nichols Project has recorded modern renditions of compositions by late pianist Herbie Nichols for the Soul Note and Palmetto labels. The group was co-founded by pianist Frank Kimbrough and bassist Ben Allison in 1992, and is tied in to the Jazz Composers Collective, a New York organization which started around the same time. The Herbie Nichols Project's recorded their debut, Love Is Proximity, during 1995-1996. While the drummers changed with each album, trumpeter/flugelhornist Ron Horton was a mainstay, and saxophonist Ted Nash joined on by the time of the band's 1999 recording Dr. Cyclop's Dream, also on Soul Note. Their third album -- and first for Palmetto -- Strange City (2001) included drummer Matt Wilson.
