i've never heard such precise vocals on giant steps in my life

[shirasmall-cangialosi]

Do not. I repeat: do not pass up the opportunity to hear and see Michael Mayo should you ever be so blessed.

[ericsearcy]

He treats his vocal solos almost exactly like a horn player. I love how he exercises a certain control over his use of intervals and can stretch out very eloquent phrases with great rhythm and dexterity! Absolutely amazing 🔥🔥🔥

I thought it was impossible to hear colors, Michael Mayo proved me wrong😃

[McClain]

The cymbals sound great on this joint. Hats off the drummer and engineer.

Jazz is fucking ALIVE and well!!!! Jesus man, you have such a good ear. I wonder if you have perfect pitch or are just a complete badass...

As a late vocalist, PROPS to Michael's commitment to jazz vocal improvisation done with random smoothness. I'm loving it!
