O’s Notes: Drummer Dana Fitzsimons leads a trio with pianist Bill Graham and Brandon Boone on bass. Graham is the primary writer, but they all contribute to 8 of 11 original compositions. The program is a collection of instrumental ballads, mostly melancholic but also with a few upbeat tunes like “Slant Anagrams” and “Number Six”. Fault Lines can serve as a relaxing backdrop for many occasions.
