AZITA is one of the most beguiling artists toiling in the underground today, There is nothing today quite like her darker take on the jazz-tinged piano-lead singer songwriter style of '70s pioneers STEELY DAN, CAROLE KING or LAURA NYRO. 'Detail from the Mountain Side' is a sweet five track CDEP release with lyrics written by Chicago playwright BRIAN TORREY SCOTT for his play of the same name, The play Detail from the Mountain Side, performed last year in Chicago, has the story of a man attempting to readjust, but it is more about how people think they've learned something when they haven't, AZITA composed music for five separate pieces, coming up with a variety of moods over five songs that range from lilting and melodic to more intense, The band that provided the bedrock was recruited from the streets of Chicago: bassists MATT LUX (ISOTOPE 217) and JASON AJEMIAN (Chicago jazz legend), RIAN MURPHY (WILL OLDHAM) on drums, and EMMETT KELLY on guitar
