JOE KYE – MIGRANTS (2018): Violinist Joe Kye has chops which bely his age. Migrants also shows a lot of heart and commitment. Kye incorporates percussion and voice to tell the stories of Korean immigrants to the U.S. His vocals are true and effective, while Kye’s layered violin swirls and dances with the complex soundscapes he’s created. After listening to “Bambam’s Lullaby” and “Fall In,” featuring Rasar and Jason Chu, you quickly realize that Migrants is more than the sum of its heady parts.
