"Daysahead, captures human emotion so well in one photograph." posted by Joanne (Jul 27, 2009, Washingtonian.com reader)
Brian Oh, a Washington D.C. photographer, captured Daysahead (see photo below) performing at the 2009 "Jazz in the Garden" National Gallery. The photo, titled "Explored", was the winning photo and featured in The Washingtonian magazine September 2009 issue.

Daysahead features the compelling voice of Kim Leachman and energetic artistry of guitarist Steve Wright…a near perfect marriage artistically…high energy music with lyrical substance.” Rob Young, Contemporary Jazz

On Woodrow Wilson Plaza, Jazz In The Garden National Arts Gallery.
Formed in 2003, Daysahead’s duo, Steve and Kim, got together to write and perform music creating “a sound that’s both contemporary and timeless.” Michael Heyliger, RhythmFlow Their sound has been coined as “Jazz-n-Roll”, an edgy soul with jazz-rock fusion. “Daysahead’s own blend of soul, funk and rock is a welcome breath of fresh air…the strength of guitar, bass, drums and impressive vocals offer a distinctive sound that’s left field from the soul mainstream in a refreshing way…” Dirk Binsau, Jazz-not-Jazz
The common theme of Daysahead’s music is “strong instrumentation and the “live” feel of the performance…it’s the combination of Kim's impressive command of that indefinable voice that goes from gospel, to soul, to jazz and to rock in a seconds notice, and the dexterity, texture, and imagination of Steve's guitar playing.” Brian Lush, Rockwired
"Daysahead’s debut cd Turning Point is a great showcase of their expansive vision of popular music." Chris Rizik, SoulTracks
