Together they revealed a shared intensity and suggested something alluring and new. The groups debut release, ‘Artemis’ delivers on that promise…The real headline here is this ensembles cohesion, its ability to move gracefully through various styles and moods and to sound, by turns, authoritative and playful, locked-in or loose-limbed. In the tradition of drummer Art Blakeys Jazz Messengers, Artemis crafts an identifiable band sound rooted in sturdy yet flexible rhythms… Artemis means to upend expectations, gently and yet with force. Its music comes off like a nuanced argument for a fresh point of view, raves the WALL STREET JOURNAL.
