Nathan, with his gift for melodic interpretation, guides the listener through all the tunes with a lush and intimate trumpet and flugelhorn sound. The song selection is top shelf - the playing is first rate - the arrangements are killer - and the production is simply outstanding! This is most certainly a ''feel good' album that you need to experience again and again!"

No exaggeration - among the top music buys I’ve made. It is musically sophisticated and at the same time accessible—not an easy balance to maintain. I think your music hits it all—the complexity of jazz and the catchy beat and melodic simplicity of pop. Love it!”

Stylish & refined urban jazz. A little hip hop beat to start with great trumpet, brought to mind Miles Davis Doo-Bop, and light Bossa Nova. Nearness of you was sublime. Such a great tone. I heard echoes of Chet. Thanks SO MUCH for sharing ”
