Mechanicatastrophe — Louis Vause

- The Daily Mirror

“A feast of swamp brews, hit the floor jolly-ups and fast finger faves… the jamie cullum it’s cool to like.”

“Wonderfully atmospheric piano playing that commands total attention. His eclectic compositions effortlessly summon up the spirit of Thelonious Monk, Duke Ellington, Dr John. Fluid, accessible and direct, it’s piano jazz for those who think they don’t like jazz.”

- Nigel Williamson (UNCUT)

Mechanicatastrophe Reviews

“Beneath his hands come echoes of Dr John, Professor Longhair, Fats Waller and James Booker. But there is something else too: a rolling, swampy lilt that is all his own.” - Jay Rayner (Observer)

“Charming, lyrical and lilting” - Jazzwise

“An album which creeps up on you, sinks its teeth into your sensibilities and refuses to let go… you’ll weep & smile in equal measure.” - Blues Matters
