“Great playing…beautiful…a real guitar player” Pat Martino

“An assertive debut.. Allard dodges any jazz-bluesy rock clichés on his electric guitar with a bold, rounded sound and patiently-shaped sense of melodic direction…the swarthy Blue Train influenced Brandon Allen and pianist Ross Stanley’s full-blooded solos are also right on the money.” Jazzwise

“Energetic guitar-led modern jazz originals from fine player Allard, who works with Jacqui Dankworth and Gwyneth Herbert, and is joined by Aussie sax firebrand Allen and a great rhythm section. Expect Radiohead-style flourishes and Metheny-ish melodies wrapped in a hip approach to modern jazz.” Time Out

“This amazing guitarist, who has played in some amazing venues across the country, comes to the jazz cafe to launch his new album ''Open Spaces'' on Audacious records, tonight.” Spoonfed
