Mt. Hungry - Music News and Reviews
"Angus Leighton of Uncle Gus and The Rimshots. I can't froth about this band enough - and neither can the event managers. These guys are making huge strides in the local scene and I see the effect that it's having in a good handful of emerging groups. With undeniable stage presence and chops to back it up, Gus proves that jazz and blues musicians no longer need to perform with their backs to the audience - and he's helping break that stigma."
John Ross Christie
"If you love smooth, cool and sexy Jazz, you most defiantly cant go past The Gus Leighton Quartet from beautiful Hobart, Tasmania What a beautiful and amazing sound!!"
