Good Citizen is an album by Canadian jazz pianist Kris Davis, which was recorded in 2009 and released on the Spanish Fresh Sound New Talent label.[2]

Reception[edit]

The All About Jazz review by Mark F. Turner states, "Good Citizen is yet another top notch release from a pianist/composer cut from the same cloth as Myra Melford and Geri Allen."[3]

In a review for Wondering Sound, Charles Farrell notes that, "Kris Davis, with very able partners, is working in the new areas where jazz and modern classical music meet. Good Citizen bodes well for their successful ongoing merger."[4]
