Jazz gets a new hairdo. (*****) — Now Toronto

The album plays like a beautiful opera sung across musical genres, times and places. — The Coast

Gypsy-jazz for the 21st century...a wonderfully diverse - and tremendously fun - gypsy album. — Montreal Gazette

Ces musiques vives et bien exécutées tendent souvent vers un mélange d'humour pince-sans-rire et de nostalgie. — La Presse, Montreal

Perfect for making even stiffs dance. — Eye Weekly, Toronto

Seamlessly blending Balkan-folk music, hip-swaying swing, with a dynamic rock edge. A jazz-ensemble mastery, Charlie Parker, Duke Ellington, colliding with modern cats like Beirut and Gogol Bordello. A fusion of musical elements to create a sound fresh and intoxicating. — Lonely Vagabond, Toronto
