:::: PRESS HIGHLIGHTS ::::
“A wonderful free-wheeling trio which works together as one creative force superbly”
–Bruce Lee Gallanter, Downtown Music Gallery
“A unfailingly melodic set that harkens back, in approach and mood, to 1996 Ornette Coleman….always organically democratic as the responsive and adroit trio works out the mesmerizing, in-the-moment musical landscapes”
—Dan McClenaghan, All About Jazz

“That we get that exceptionally well in Beneath the Ritual it is because Blaise, Luciano and John are attuned to a foundation as a place to spring forward from and transform endlessly so that in the end it is a new place to dwell within musically…Recommended!”
—Gapplegate Music Review
