“Haunting vocals and an ethereal yet powerful sound make for this special performance’s success. Live From St John’s captures the magic of being present at a Dan Chapman concert”

“Sweet Marbled Monster”, Dan’s soaring vocals interweave with intuitive keys from Chris followed by an explosive, goosebump-inducing fusion of the quartet in its entirety. Dan’s solo rendition of “Strange Fruit” is masterful, he lifts mountains with the height and brightness of his falsetto and digs deep with gravelly tones exactly where it is appropriate.”
