Marco Benevento's Invisible Baby has been drawing raves from fans and press alike. He's just finished a five date East Coast run with his trio featuring Reed Mathis and Andrew Barr and will be announcing West Coast tour dates shortly. Here's what critics have been saying:

“On Invisible Baby (Hyena) with bassist Reed Mathis and drummers Andrew Barr and Matt Chamberlain, Benevento sculpts his pieces with playful weirdness too (the insect-dance hook of 'The Real Morning Party') and addresses the melodies and spaces in 'Ruby' and 'You Must Be Lion' with heated grace."
- David Fricke, Rolling Stone

“...Benevento is actually a pop formalist, albeit a sneaky one, and, for all his improvisational chops, a textural minimalist very much in the tradition of Brian Eno or Sigur Ros. Chaos and chance are the calling cards, but his songs are always accessible..."
- Bret Gladstone, Village Voice

“The new Benevento record will appeal to fans of Thelonious Monk, Air, Radiohead and Phish...tunes like 'Bus Ride' and 'Are You The Favorite Person Of Anybody' are ambient soundscapes winking at the psychedelic."
- David Callicott, New York Press

“Brief and spare, yet powerful and moving, there is nothing but joy at the heart of Invisible Baby, which is nothing short of an instant classic."
- Josh Potter, Jambase.com

“Benevento is something of an iconoclast on the piano. He knows his Monk and his Basie, but he prefers to play like a rock star, bashing power chords into the ivories and hooking up with others who straddle the rock-jazz line. Is it jazz? Is it rock? Hard to say, but it hardly matters."
- Steve Greenlee, The Boston Globe

“Invisible Baby is an eight track masterpiece."
- Lucas Stangl, The Late Greats

“Invisible Baby will twist your synapses, feed your head, and turn on your love light. It will, in short, make you feel glad to be alive."
- Chris May, All About Jazz

“...more tightly focused and accessible than the glorious sprawl of Benevento's 3-disc, Live at Tonic outing last year, Invisible Baby remains a daring, genre-bending trio record."
