Shez Raja
Spellbound
The playing of every musician involved is exceptional and the performances are dynamic and exciting, with Raja’s bass a unifying force as he explores a broad range of music from east and west.
A very worthy addition to an already impressive back catalogue
An avant garde jazz record that is actually highly accessible. The playing is steely eyed & dynamic but the band members also sound as if they’re having terrific fun. The Exu are a breath of fresh air
A composer of considerable intelligence who deploys his wide range of influences subtly and skilfully. The standard of playing from an all star band is exceptional throughout.
Her compositions are intelligent and evocative and her arrangements and orchestrations rich, wide ranging and colourful, allowing Davies to bring out the best from her hand picked cast of musicians.
