Tomas Janzon - guitar
Essiet Essiet - double bass

“Float” is a Janzon original with a spooky, off-kilter feel where his bop solo fits perfectly. The other original,
“Blue Bee,” has an airy feel that makes it stand out from the blues and funk. The record closes with a beautiful solo piece,
“En Dejlig Rosa,”which showcases everything about Janzon’s playing that make this one of the best jazz guitar records from the past year.

one of the best jazz-guitar tones you'll hear... one of the best jazz guitar records from the past year. "

-Dave Walker, Dave Walker Music, Just Jazz Guitar

“Janzon’s warmly soul-tinged lines over Hillery’s staccato chords and Heath’s winking, on-and-off shuffle.”
-Alan Young, Lucid Culture

Guitarist Tomas Janzon’s Experiences is a fine exercise in tonal contrasts. And it swings.
-All About Jazz New York, Nov. 2010

…the guitarist’s subtle, feeling way with a melody.
