Press Reviews “....it combines the elements of many musics jazz, rock, salsa, world music of various kinds to create an effective whole. The members of BeebleBrox have succeeded in creating their own sound. You can hear many influences in their music, but they don’t sound quite like anyone else.”Shawn Woodyard, Different Beat, Indianapolis“.... the tunes incorporate an exceptional level of creativity, both in terms of composition and instrumentation...”Dave McElfresh, Cadence Magazine“Unlike most contemporary jazz groups, BeebleBrox’s compositions are expressionistic and refreshingly off the beaten path, integrating jazz, rock, classical and Latin elements.”JazzTimesAnother mind-opening experience can be found at the hands of BeebleBrox on Dominant Domain . Though you might expect a creative and even humorous edge from a band named for the two-headed galactic president in the sci-fi classic The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, it's hard to prepare for the uniquely detailed arrangements offered here. ..........This unusual, Indianapolis-by-way-of-Germany band has been at it for 15 years - and the experience shows in their sublime detail and super-tight execution.JazzTimes, June 1999
