WHAT PEOPLE HAVE SAID
“Jazz is not only about commercial imperatives; it’s also about artistry and musical excellence. I’m fussy when it comes to vocalists, and very hard to please. I feel that this country has only a handful of great jazz singers. This quintessential jazz club experience confirmed for me that Gregg Arthur is one of them.” – Eric Myers, The Weekend Australian "Some people got it, and some people don’t. Gregg Arthur is one of the ones who does. It’s the devilish art of being a jazz singer." - John Shand, Sydney Morning Herald “Unmatched as a singer and performer” - Clayton Cameron (Drummer with Sammy Davis Jnr, Tony Bennett, George Shearing, Joe Pass, Joe Williams). "In my opinion, he is the ultimate crooner" - Maestro Tommy Tycho AM MBE “I love the way you sing. You have a fan in the way you phrase... it’s perfect” - Tony Bennett “Simply one of the best singers I have ever heard” - Tom Ranier (pianist/arranger Barbara Streisand, Tony Bennett, Placido Domingo, Lady GaGa) |
