And suddenly evening

And suddenly, evening.

“.. elegant..accomplished … perhaps a classic in the making.. Indicating a great live experience”
London Jazz News

***1/2 “… beautiful opening piece … an exceptional group performance … album featuring some

excellent playing and an interesting selection of material… Mike Collins is a musician who will be well worth

seeing live in whatever instrumental context you might find him”
The Jazzman

“a voice all his own.. an achievement in lyricism .. a stunning band …would grace any jazz lover’s library”
Charley Dunlap, Listomania

***1/2 “.. mixes attractive melodies with a rhythmical flexibility… the easy confidence of a quartet enjoying itself”
