“If there were ever a band which just funkily rocks, this is it! Supremely tight, funky playing from all three musicians, it deserves to be on a huge stage in front of thousands – but each year they return to Ashburton Arts Centre to play this amazing stuff to our small (but perfectly formed!) old chapel, where it just sounds fantastic. Simply great musicians, and three lovely guys. Come and see them – you won’t regret it! ” Andy Williamson, Ashburton Arts Centre

“…Part of the reason for his accessibility is that he not only fuses jazz and rock, he complements it with warm chords of funk, soul, and rhythm and blues…” New York Times
