Press Quotes

"All hail the mighty Revolutionary Snake Ensemble.  They have blessed us with another great record of jazz that you have to dance to, but without losing the complexity and sophistication of the music itself.  There's some Sun Ra, some New Orleans second line, some Afrobeat, some Zappa, and other mystical ingredients that combine into a musical spell that will envelop the listener.  This is jazz for young and old and new and veteran." - David Kunian, Curator, New Orleans Jazz Museum; Host, Freaknologist Lunatique, WWOZ, New Orleans
