Fruition - The Kris Johnson Group

From the archives. After social distancing for over a year during the pandemic, we went into the studio to hang and make some music together and for whatever reason, never released this project! 3 years later, I’m happy to release this series of videos filmed by Matt Lima Films at Big Sky Studios in Ann Arbor, MI.
This song is “Fruition” that I wrote back in college and has been a staple of the Kris Johnson Group since our inception. Recorded for the first time here, this features myself, Marcus Elliot, and Jon Dixon. Full meal on RUclips 🙌🏿 linked in my bio 🙌🏿
Kris Johnson - trumpet
Marcus Elliot - saxophone

Fruition! A wonderful song that speaks to all things that happens over long arduous tasks and outcomes of hard work. I respect this man and his consummate world class, professional ensemble.
