“Think Karl Denson or Norman Brown with a bit more funk. A lot of the guitar work seems to be inspired by greats like Wes Montgomery and George Benson.”
“J.J.’s guitar playing style will remind you of Lee Ritenour. He’s a future star in the world of smooth jazz music.”
“JJ Sansaverino is serving up a heady and atmospheric mix of soulful smooth jazz that is as good as anything I have heard all year.”
“Upbeat and hot in feel, daring and adventurous in style. The best way to describe what JJ has done is to say “job well done.”
