Sugarwork by Sugarwork
“beautifully crafted, full of surprises and excellent musicianship...it lifted me to a world of musical enlightenment...I’ve been left breathless and wanting more...one of the best albums to come out of Scotland in a long time.” nujazzeurope.eu
“An album of compelling, startling music, unlike anything else on the current jazz scene in Scotland.” London Jazz News
“music that’s by turns robust and forthright, gently probing, strongly melodic and intriguingly atmospheric.” The Herald
“Sugarwork is something quite special.” Walking Bass Buzz
“The real achievement is how Paul Harrison and his band have managed to combine two opposing sounds and make them work so well together. An intriguing piece, well worth a listen.” The Wee Review
