For those who thought that there could be no more surprises in the world of jazz guitar ... may I introduce Jonathan Kreisberg. Hailed as a major up and comer by players, fans and critics alike, and only in his early thirties, Kreisberg sounds and plays like a seasoned veteran. You only need to listen to his latest CD release from Mel Bay Records, Unearth, to hear his brilliance as an electrifying player and composer. Unearth has it all. Kreisberg and crew draw the listener into a world filled with prodigious playing, thought-provoking improvisational ingenuity, and heady tunes. It is a world that defines the harmonic and melodic richness of jazz improvisation and Jonathan's individual voice. And what a voice! His playing is harmonically fruitful and melodically effortless as he charms long flowing lines from his guitar with a taste, skill, and experience that, as mentioned earlier, belie his youth"--Lyle Robinson, Jazz Guitar Life
