City Lights Ahead 5:210:00/5:21
“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!”
— Dr. David Fekete - Harvard Graduate
“ 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 ”
— Todd Crawshaw - CKUA Radio Network
“from the funky dance groove of "City Lights Ahead," to the soulful "Georgia," to the Latin-jazz stylings of "No More Blues," it never misses a beat!! Nathan, with his gift for melodic interpretation, guides the listener through all the tunes with a lush and intimate trumpet and flugelhorn sound.”
— Al Hood Associate Professor of Trumpet Denver University
“With an enticing title track, we’re left wanting to discover the rest of the album and experience Nathan Samuelson’s breathtaking talent. ”
