 "The instrumentation takes one to a magical place. It's bright and airy." - Jazz N Pop (Click HERE for full article)  "To counteract jazz excess while still delving into deep improvisations, Bennett draws on the inspiration of folk music and the classic American minimalism of Steve Reich, Philip Glass, and Terry Riley." - Boston Phoenix (Click HERE for full article)  "Saxophonist Daniel Bennett makes hay with an airy
approach that's buoyant enough to conjure notions of East African guitar riffs and Steve Reich's pastoral repetition." - Village Voice (Click HERE for full article)  "Saxist Daniel Bennett airs his lilting, potentially
hypnotic compositions" - Timeout New York (Click HERE for full article)  "Entertaining and Complex" Josep Pedro - All About Jazz (Click HERE for full article)  "The New England Conservatory-trained multi-reedman is quickly gaining a reputation as a composer who combines folkloric elements with the minimalist chord progressions of Steve Reich and Philip Glass, yielding music that is fresh, accessible, and just a bit quirky." - Jazz Police (Click HERE for full article)  "Bennett takes his unique brand of trance-like improvised soundscapes to sublime new heights." - Best Saxophone Website Ever Blog (Click HERE for full article)  "Performing jazz that's diametrically opposed to most of the
jazz of the Downtown scene... Not like any other horn player out of NYC." Something Else Reviews (Click HERE for full article)  "Bennett has a genius for creating immediately affecting melodies, which the group then develops into small masterpieces" - Bruce Lindsay - All About Jazz (Click HERE for full article) |
 "Clockhead Goes to Camp might be the first genuine musical equivalent to a Wes Anderson film." - Between Sound & Space (Click HERE for article)  "Daniel Bennett's Peace and Stability Among Bears is one of the most disctinctive and charming recordings I've heard in some time." - The Big City Blog (Click HERE for full article)  "An indie rock vibe develops into African moods, as Bennett's alto presents his characteristic light and talkative sound."
- Simon Harper - All About Jazz (Click HERE for full article)  "Daniel Bennett should make people sit up and take notice with this release. Defying strict or standard categorization, Bennett is charting his own musical path."
