“The Carol Kaye Project is Boston Dance Theater’s (BDT) newest program that celebrates seminal bassist Carol Kaye. Since the early 1960s Kaye recorded an estimated 10,000 sessions, with everyone from The Beach Boys to Marvin Gaye. Yet, she remains relatively unknown. Boston Dance Theater chose choreographers Karole Armitage, Rena Butler, and Rosie Herrera to honor Kaye’s extensive musical repertoire. I’m humbled to contribute a fourth work to this program, set to a commissioned music score featuring the electric bass by my brother and collaborator, Grant Stinnett. As a diverse cohort of powerhouse, American, women choreographers, our works embody Kaye’s genius through sweaty, whimsical, and thoughtful choreography.”
-Jessie Jeanne Stinnett, BDT’s Founder/Co-Artistic Director
