Kayla Williams & Friends

Kayla’s dedication to genre bending experiences includes regularly performing with her quartet. The ensemble explores a multidisciplinary approach to contemporary chamber music. The ensemble strives to bridge the gaps between classical, jazz, folk, and roots music, bringing each of these musical communities into conversation and collaboration. Williams serves as the group’s violist, vocalist, and composer. She created the ensemble while looking for a way to get back to some of her earliest experiences in music, where the boundaries between genre and style were often much more permeable than they appeared during her classical training.
