Opening the show: the Jazz Expressions, a fly-azz band of brothers who don’t just play, but transcend sound in a way that makes you say, Dizz-ZAMN! You don’t even care that your date is *late.* This music becomes your date. It’s a sexy date full of sensuous horns that blare hornily through your solar plexus. It’s the piano that tickles your vertebrae in a warm, lewd place. It’s a booming bass that bangs and thumps your bottom, baby. It’s the drums that spanks your azz with a mad infectious rhytmn. It’s the flute that coos so high, it woozily seduces you. See, this date knows you, baby. It knows where you live and breathe, and it hits just the right places and pulses within you. - A Jazzy Date With Bluemoaner...
“It would be hard to find more committed or more brilliant musicians. With T.K. Blue on saxophone and flute, Aaron Graves on piano, Dwayne Broadnax on drums and Hilliard Greene on bass, this quartet deserves wider recognition and a place on the Jazz at Lincoln Center series roster. Their improvisations and progressive unions are flawless.” - Backstage
“The Jazz Expressions are as sensual and tight as a leather glove.”
- Hot Press
