“Bassist-composer makes an impressive debut with Nebula… a very auspicious debut from a talent truly deserving of wider recognition. Hines has crafted a true winner here… chockfull of things that hardcore jazz-fusion fans adore. Nebula couldn’t come more recommended. A no-holds barred player’s project, with harmonically challenging compositions, and virtuosic, over-the-top solos.“ ~Bill Milkowsky, Author, Contributor, Bassplayer Magazine, Senior Writer for abstractlogix.com
