Twenty years after their first recording together, longtime musical collaborators Jerome Sabbagh and Greg Tuohey reunite to record No Filter, an album that features their original compositions. Together with Joe Martin and Kush Abadey, they explore their unique rapport though different moods and grooves in this live to two track recording by James Farber.
“A superb-sounding album […] Seven fresh originals that pack a potent punch, swing with a quiet authority and tug at the heartstrings.” - Bill Milkowski, DownBeat
“The quartet functions like a well-oiled machine […] From the sublime balladry of “No Road” and “Cotton” to the more straight ahead groove and interplay of “Ghostly”, No Filter is a solid set - recorded, performed, packaged and delivered to the highest standards.” - James Rozzi, Jazziz
“Great musicality without flashiness; a record that one wants to champion both for its beauty and its integrity, and whose freshness belies great musical and artistic maturity.” - Jean-François Mondot, Jazz Magazine
“Sabbagh’s solos are song-serving and cliché-free. Tuohey is a thoughtful improviser, building ideas with architectural rigor while adeptly comping chords at the same time […] What comes to the fore is songwriting and sensitivity […] The strong original material insures that the album as a whole is highly listenable.” - Tom Greenland, NYC Jazz Record
“No Filter provides an engaging experience filled with alluring melodies and harmonies and dexterous transitions. It translates into inspired, grown-up music with a fresh taste of youth.” - Filipe Freitas, JazzTrail
“A resonant, thoughtful effort.” - Peter Hoetjes, All About Jazz
“The music is filled with enthralling contrasts of light and dark shadings, with Sabbagh’s saxophone and Tuohey’s guitar intersecting beautifully as they dance around the rhythm section.” - Fair Hedon
“Both soloists are superb. […] My casual stance changed to one of deep concentration as the unique charts wove their magic.” - Anthony Kershaw, Audiophilia
