The SYDNEY HERALD says
They put you in Parisian clubs of the 1930's, sophisticated New York tea rooms of the same era, bars in Texas and Oklahoma, and maybe a Gypsy caravan. It's Hot Jazz, Western Swing, Hoagy Carmichael and the Gershwins. It's like someone throwing open the windows to allow a brisk breeze to blow away the cobwebs.
The TIMES OF LONDON calls them...
The World's Greatest Little Texas Swing Band... The journeys to Tin Pan Alley's Golden Years are handled with a rare sense of joie de vivre. Recommended for cowpokes and lovers of Django alike!
The WASHINGTON TIMES says...
Absolutely one of the year's most unexpected listening pleasures. A charming, irresistible mix of Western Swing revivalism, contemporary Americana and sultry torch songs... It's Ms. James' sultry voice and her incomparable fiddling that remain the Hot Club's big draw.
The AQUARIAN WEEKLY says...
A band that seems to imagine American pop music as if it had stopped in the mid-1950's... Elana James has an alto that's smoother than aged Kentucky Bourbon, and her soft croon drips with potential. She navigates through an emotional jungle with arresting ease.
The DAILY EXAMINER (Huddlesfield UK) says...
The rise and rise of Hot Club of Cowtown is a phenomenon of US music. This Jazz and Western Swing threesome has broken every record for their kind of music since their start in the mid 90's.
"They are now the Most Globe-Trotting Hard-Swinging Western Trio on the Planet."
