Boys’ Night Out
“Tasty, contemporary big band that is note perfect throughout and a real wake up call for genre fans looking for the real deal.”
- Chris Spector, Midwest Record
“The arrangements soar, the soloists sizzle, the ideas flow, and the band is a winner! “ - George Fendel, Jazz Society of Oregon
“When it comes to Jazz my favourite style is big band and I take Count Basie's band as my benchmark. I think I have now found a new benchmark in The Michael Treni Big Band.” - John M. Peters, Musicwatch, The Borderland UK
