‘This is top drawer, acoustic jazz with an introspective and quietly joyful edge. This set has joined the band’s first release near the top of my playlist…There are driving pulses and rock-tinged feels, interspersed with stately marches, lightly skipping waltzes and impressionistic rubato. A constant thread is melodic invention and distilled and carefully sculpted themes.” (Mike Collins/London Jazz News)
