Fleck says" -Downbeat Magazine

"This is what jazz folks usually call a little big band. The ten piece unit under Peter Furlan sound big enough and are very well integrated. The ensembles are played with precision and a lot of thought seems to have gone into producing various different tone colours...It certainly has a distinctive sound and the sound colours produced are unique to Furlan’s little orchestra. … The music on all tracks has a distinctive flavour, in some ways like the old Gil Evans orchestras when Gil recorded under his own name…, this is a very good session." - Derek Ansell, Jazz Views UK

“There isn’t a handy term or genre for the music that Kneebody creates. It’s a band thoroughly acquainted with 1960s free-bop, 1970s jazz rock, 1990s hip-hop and postmillennial indie rock; along with classical postminimalism. (I’m leaving something out, I’m sure.)
