"Burning Gums is Jazz that Burns and Spreads"
"it's clear that there isn't much these three can't do. This self-titled release
could have been twice as long, and never gotten old.
5 stars (out of 5)
Nick DeRiso, ReviewYou
Representing three continents, Burning Gums is a fresh new color on the seemingly
endless palette of jazz guitar bands. The trio's debut album contains nine exciting
tracks showcasing high caliber musicianship expertly navigating between the many
styles of music from samba to swing. Interesting compositions and unusual arrangements
of classics like So What and Killer Joe will keep listeners pleasantly alert. Norbert
Marius' smooth bass grooves provide solid foundation for guitarist Ron Jackson's
sophisticated improvisations, which are expertly matched by Matsu Hiroyuki's energetic
drumming, all creating the very special sound of Burning Gums. A sound that will
make its mark! A true jam.
