“Rodger Fox’s big sound makes for a wild ride. I’m glad Rodger had a ball with the tunes as a source to let fly freely.” Dave Dobbyn

“… seriously good, fun, hard, swinging and thoughtful reimagining of Dave Dobbyn’s music through the lens of a big band . . . with sassy session players off the leash.” Elsewhere
