Criminoso is a great live band. Their music is a lush oasis of sound that weaves these elegant tropicalia vibes with the immediacy of Jazz. It has the sense of humour of Haydn (at times), the coolness of Monk and the sensuality of Jobim. -- Patricia Silva, Elements Magazine - Patricia Silva, Elements Magazine
The Criminoso show on 14th Street was quite a jam. They packed the house! I hadn't seen Jazz in a tiki lounge before but they classed it up. That's it – those fellows have major class! -- Nathan Hail, www.nathanhail.com - Nathan Hail, www.nathanhail.com
