A rare combination of facility and emotion drives Sandbox and Sanctum with energy and unrelenting genius of composition. Ess's out of the box, hard driving, modern guitar lines create a release filled with depth and angular colors. Sandbox and Sanctum is a release for the hard-core listener that expects superior musicianship and cerebral interaction. Ess has caught the eye of some of the best in the business, appearing with A-list players at each of his events.
Cindy McLeod of Jazzreview.com: “From beginning to end this recording is filled with delightful surprises in context, substance, and passionate expressiveness. There isn't a single moment when one isn't completely enthralled with the musical virtuosity, superb composition, and stunning production values, the whole of which transcends the music and takes the listener to another graceful dimension."
