Their set played like an expertly crafted mixtape, moving from a knotty version of Thelonious Monk’s “Brilliant Corners” to a surprisingly dramatic arrangement of the Beatles’ “Fool on the Hill.” ~ Rolling Stone Magazine
“Deep-swinging and technically accomplished, Blue Note supergroup Artemis produces a stellar follow up to its 2020 debut.” ~DownBeat
