“This was a really impressive performance with very tight, intricate and imaginative arrangements, full of surprises and startling changes of pace. To the loud delight of the audience delicate improvisations would suddenly explode into heavy prog-rock beats with ferocious drumming driving the band forward. […]. Herer’s use of the Rhodes was particularly fresh and had been outstanding in the first set too.”
London Jazz News – Peter Slavid, 2015
“Flowing improvisations, accents in touch with the rhythmic concerns of the times, sensitivity to contemporary rock, roots diving less in the post-bop mainstream than in the questioning of the jazz at the turn of the 70s.”
