”The program includes works by Matthew Shlomowitz and Sky Macklay from “Hypothetical Islands,” the impressive album that the group issued in March..” (-Steve Smith, The New Yorker)
”A reed quintet with sensibilities that are over ridingly post punk as they delve into progressive jazz and classical realms, they fearlessly tread on shaky grounds without losing their footing. Untamed stuff for wild ears, when the wheel don't come off, you know you're in good hands and this journey is an easy bet for the sonically adventurous.” (Chris Spector, Midwest Record)
