Iva Bittová
“Iva Bittová is an extraordinary artist. Raw and defined, passionate and contained, she has the soul of a gypsy, the voice of a troubadour, and the mind of a genius.”

“… a fusion of Old World and new-music sensibilities, infused with the spirit and language of Czech, Slovak, and Moravian folk music.” –New York Magazine

Theo Bleckmann
"Bleckmann is a singer with emotional range to match his chops and rare command of the darker hues in the emotional spectrum."
–THE NEW REPUBLIC
"Bleckmann possesses technique so colossal, yet so meticulous, he can seem otherworldly, an android-like embodiment of sci-fi vocalisms, a bodily vessel for that voice.
––Phil DiPietro, AllAboutJazz |

Don Byron
"Calling Don Byron a jazz musician is like calling the Pacific wet –
it just doesn't begin to describe it... Byron has carpentered an extraordinary career precisely by obliterating the very idea of category.” –TIME Magazine
“Showing us new ways of thinking and feeling about familiar experiences is one of the tasks of the true artist and is something Byron revels in.” –The Times, London |

Ron Miles
"Ron Miles is one of the finest trumpeters in jazz today. I can’t come up with a compelling reason why he should be anything other than a major name.” –Jazz Times
“Miles plays brilliantly, singing the melodies with a tone bright and vocalized, tinged with melancholy...” –Down Beat |
 |
Dafnis Prieto
"A phenomenal drummer... he is clearly pushing the Afro-Cuban jazz language into new territory." – Variety
“The drummer Dafnis Prieto stands out for his energy, his creativity and, perhaps most of all, his borderless musical worldview.” –The New York Times |

Edward Simon
"…intricate harmonies, sophisticated contrapuntal voicings, effervescent odd-metered rhythms, and the serene, melancholic melodies of Venezuelan folk music.” –Down Beat |
 |
Tin Hat (formerly Tin Hat Trio)
"... the group blends elements of jazz, folk and classical chamber music to create unique, yet often eerie compositions that seem like the perfect movie score.” –Billboard
“Forget the definitions, and simply think of their music as compelling entertainment, rich with whimsy, imagination and intelligence.” –Los Angeles Times |
