Press Reviews
"Breaking the mold of the norm is what great musicians do. This six-piece band consisting of predominately jazz musicians is a return to the great soul music of the past. Check him out, you will not be disappointed."
Sara Staricha - Pulse of the Twin Cities
"Starkey's voice is so smooth, controlled and beautiful ... The man can make you ache, seriously. ... Nothing can really describe it, but absolutely everyone I know who has heard it has been blown away, and deeply impressed"
Bruce Cook - Static Magazine
"John's music has a very funky, smooth, soulful feel. It's vibe has moments that ring of both Prince and Larry Graham albums we recently played on."
Dave and Kathy Jenson - Hornheads (horn section for Prince)
"John Starkey has been writing all his own music and performing in clubs around the country for the past 12 years. Together with his band, of the same name, he has created a smooth sound with a very unique vibe."
Staff Writer - Star Tribune
