Alison Margaret Jazz Quartet

"Come Sunday" features innovative arrangements of American jazz classics as well as lesser-known
tunes from the jazz repertoire. Ms. Margaret collaborated with renowned pianist and composer, Laurence Hobgood
whose distinct sound eloquently guides the quintet.

ISTHMUS: MAD TRACKS REVIEW "Up Jump Spring" (Freddie Hubbard')
"...Ms. Margaret essays the entire tune with only Eric Hochberg's dancing acoustic bass for accompaniment.
Her interaction with Hochberg is light and free and very much a mutual conversation. Margaret shows her
mettle by following up with some impressionistic scatting that allows the tune to deliquesce very naturally."
-Tom Laskin (Dec. 14, 2007 The Daily Page)
