"Justin Klunk has emerged as one of the leading new faces of smooth jazz. His high-driven, electrifying sax playing is getting the attention of many industry professionals not the least of which is Ariana Grande who has Justin on her recent U.S. tour. His new EP features original melodies with plenty of groove and foot tapping R&B." ~DAVID BENOIT
"I've known Justin for years now, and I've had the pleasure of watching him grow into a very seasoned young saxophonist with a fresh, new perspective and point of view on the horn--you can hear it in every note on this EP. He's a promising new talent on the scene, and I wish him the very best moving forward." ~DAVE KOZ
