Kudos For 7x7By7 Roll In

7x7 by7 album cover

 Hearing the trumpet of Brian Lynch is listening to one of the special sounds in jazz…The music is spirited and engaging, consistently interesting, and made more significant when the listener is made aware of what Lynch was specifically referencing as he composed each piece.” JOE LANG, Jersey Jazz

These musicians attack Lynch’s compositions with sensitivity and conviction, displaying a cohesion that could only be achieved by a steady working band… To my mind, this is the year’s solidest record so far — hard work, not luck, has everything to do with its considerable pleasures.” BROOKS GEIKEN, artsdfuse.org

“…the band has an immediately identifiable sound and personality…when it comes to solos, each player is strong and individual.” ALYN SHIPTON, Jazzwise Magazine (Editor’s Choice/4 Stars)

“…exceptional jazz, by a trusted veteran, still pushing himself to new conceptual horizons.” MORGAN ENOS, ukjazznews.com

“…the music itself is pure joy: straight-ahead jazz with tight unison playing, a hard-bop edge, touches of Latin flair, and knockout solos from everyone in the band.” TIM LARSEN, jazzviews.net

“…these tracks pack drama and surprise…a sharp album.”  Downbeat Magazine
