“If Preston's name isn't familiar to you, it should be”Jazz Times; “Preston is equally adept at hurtling improv, Metheny-like chordal themes and warm balladeering” Guardian; “Glasgow unobtrusively fills out the low end with slow-moving basslines, until he steps into the spotlight and reveals himself to be a powerfully original soloist – astonishing” Jazz Views; “In terms of sheer ability and potential, Jason Rebello is probably [one] of the finest…jazz musicians this country has produced.” Jazz: The Modern Resurgence; “Stacey…a fine…drummer with an infectious feel” Time Out
