Quartet!
Released in March 2024, Quartet was a return to creating music under the K Prouty name, after taking 2 years and working on "Building Upon The Revelation" which saw 3 releases, many live shows and festivals, record contract negotiations and press in American and European magazines and websites.
Quartet was a record that was brewing for years. Many people had thrown out the idea of playing it a little mellower and jazzy. The idea kicked around and around and finally clicked and viola , Quartet!
7 originals and 2 swing standards, a fun album.

Headbangers Reviews
"The Black Tide”. With a 16-minute runtime to go along with a singular tracklist, K Prouty accomplishes a feat that is never given enough credit from just about every angle, and it’s here that “The Black Tide” absolutely dominates as the band’s musical prowess is in full swing with every minute of this effort flowing together brilliantly to craft an experience that cannot be considered anything other than potent.

Headbangers Reviews - Energy Frequency Vibration
The very name of this album is taken from a quote from Nikola Tesla: “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration”. And it’s really the entirety of this record that does a surprising job at bringing such a premise to life without much struggle to be had at any point in its existence. K Prouty has done nothing but absolute justice for the concept of a progressive album that quickly takes on an infectious life of its own

San Diego Blather - Exploring with meaning
​
Have you ever heard anyone claim that metal suffers from a lack of definitive music? You know, for some reason, some people do not hear the intricate finger work and the incredible shredding with complicated drum work. They just hear noise. As those who love this genre and it’s sub-genres, we know that this “noise” is rich with multi layers of musical talent and influences. Nevertheless, such as the case with any and all forms of art – opinions vary per individual. So, today, I’m introducing K Prouty who is new to me and I hope you will completely fall in love with what you’re about to hear. K Prouty creations are unique instrumental progressive metal that made me feel I was enjoying lovingly created atmospheric and ethereal but still very much metal creations. This is some of the sweetest of ear candy I’ve heard so please kick back and enjoy the enclosed videos. Well, after we do the band information and social media links etc. You know the drill!

A great ep, and where K Prouty started to explore playing and sound territories that would become the quintessential to his sound.
