"I caught three fabulous acts Sunday at the Lancaster Jazz Festival. The headliner, Kurt Elling, kept the listeners there, but for my tastes, the second act, the Reese Project, stole the show. This unique combination with a soloing cello playing bass lines, amazing soloist Tom Reese making the flute viable as a jazz instrument & soaring vocals by vetern vocalist Ron Smith proved that unique instrumentation equals great jazz." (Logan McKinney, "New Waves in Radio")
Their influences include all the jazz greats like Miles & Coltrane, and collect from the diverse sounds of Bela Fleck, David Grisman, Stephane Grapelli, Turtle Island & Kronos String Quartets, & classic rock bands.
