‘A shining example of doing fresh things while keeping the sounds accessible.. Excellent music.’
Don G. O’Vanney Jazz UK psuedonym of Jed Williams, legendary journalist/editor based in Cardiff
‘… always fresh, lively and accessible, but thoughtfully providing plenty of contexts on which some hand-picked soloists can really take off…there’s plenty of fascinating rhythm around Deirdre’s melodic lines. A nicely – judged balance between the familiar and the challenging too, with the guest soloists and especially Co Streiff on saxes giving the music edge and urgency.’ Pete Martin Jazz UK
‘…Manipulating tones and textures has been one of Deirdre Cartwright’s special talents, and the variety in these eight pieces is quite astonishing. The effect is sophisticated without being pretentious, and her guitar playing grows ever more supple and inventive.
Excellent solos.’ Dave Gelly The Observer
