On The Go is a strikingly original and fiercely contemporary record the product of a musician who openly acknowledges his influences but filters them through his own 21st century sensibility to create jazz thats fresh but also, paradoxically, familiar andtimeless Mojo Magazine

On The Go is superb, a finely-crafted, emotionally and spiritually engaging work that stands comparison with anything the jazz world currently has to offer, and with plenty of the finest from the jazz world’s past All About Jazz

A very beautiful album with fantastic, thoughtful performances from all involved Blues and Soul Magazine
