Scatter The Atoms That Remain is a dynamic jazz ensemble founded in 2017 by drummer and composer Franklin Kiermyer. Rooted in spiritual jazz and inspired by transformative approaches to the late-period work of John Coltrane, the group crafts immersive performances that fuse rhythm, melody, and meditative texture. Kiermyer, a veteran drummer with a storied past in modern jazz, leads the band through explorations that honor tradition while pushing toward new sonic territories. The project emphasizes ensemble communication, groove, and a contemplative depth that invites listeners to reflect as they experience the music live.
