Eddie Allen and PUSH “Allen makes musical choices that immediately draw you to his sphere: his compositions are loaded with what the London Observer calls crackle. ...the command of his instrument empowers him to explore places with a direct sense that takes the listener for quite a ride.”
Evan Woodle “...phenomenal...my favorite young drummer...”
Joe Manis “...Manis plays the tenor saxophone in a no holds barred, unapologetic manner... he's got a powerful sound and a lot of great ideas.”
Adam Nussbaum “Adam Nussbaum's credits abound. His output includes records with guitar master John Abercrombie, saxophonist Michael Brecker, guitarist John Scofield, and the big bands of Gil Evans, and Carla Bley, among so many other giants of the music...”
Geoffrey Keezer “Geoffrey possesses a refreshingly open-eared sensibility in the modern manner, and he has more than enough virtuosity and sheer musical wit and intelligence to weave all of his apparently disparate strands of influence into an original and compelling whole.”
Ryan Burns “� with keyboardist Ryan Burns pulling wah-wah guitar sounds out of the ether, or maybe it's his Fender Rhodes, though I've never heard those sounds from one before.”
Rob Walker “...A sound that harkens to the days of the late Lee Morgan...”
Cuong Vu “Listeners coming from jazz won't feel lost. Plenty of the genre's current obsessions are here: odd-meter rhythm patterns, slow soloing over fast rhythms (vice versa too), and a kind of bucolic lyricism. The point of Mr. Vu's music, at its best, is just that: to make you feel lost in it.”
Jeff Campbell “Campbell is a strong player with a classic upright sound, great intonation, and chops to spare.”
Don Sickler “Knowing Don Sickler's pedigree, skilled arranger for various and sundry tasty delights from the Tadd Dameron rep unit Dameronia to T.S. Monk.”
Steve Million “...exceptionally talented pianist and composer...”
