RECENT PRESS “There are probably fewer than a dozen influential vibraphonists in today’s jazz scene, but it seems certain that Warren Wolf’s name will be added to that list in short order.” - Pierre Giroux, Audiophile Audition “Corea and Gary Burton played [Senor Mouse] as a duet on the album Crystal Silence, but Wolf overdubs vibraphone over marimba here. The result is hypnotic. The tune tells you exactly who Warren Wolf is—an artist of immense ability and taste.” –Frank Alkyer , DownBeat “Warren Wolf is one stellar document. As debuts go, this one is tough to beat.” - Michael J. West, JazzTimes “Purity of tone, expressive chordal capabilities, fleet runs, nuanced articulation and a unique exoticism allow the vibes to lead or fit in whether the material be bop or ballads. On this self-titled release, young vibist Warren Wolf showcases all these qualities and more.” -Elliott Simon, New York City Jazz Record “To say that Warren Wolf’s Mack Avenue debut is auspicious would be an understatement. No doubt, this is one of the best of the year in jazz.” –Greg Thomas, NY Daily News “The young vibraphonist Warren Wolf, from Baltimore, plays music that doesn’t argue with the most popular and usable parts of jazz’s past. It doesn’t hesitate or erase its own tracks. It uses swing, blues, virtuosity, cuteness, directness and seldom wanders from a sense of tune.” –Ben Ratliff, New York Times “Warren Wolf: one of the most influential young vibraphonists playing anywhere.” - Danny Johnson, San Diego County News “Wolf, a technical wunderkind, turns ‘Senor Mouse,’ a duet for Chick Corea and vibraphonist Gary Burton, into a shimmering solo vehicle.” – Karl Stark, Philadelphia Inquirer “Warren Wolf uses his sharp take on the vibraphone to reinterpret bebop in the present. I’m not sure where this album will take him, but it should be quite far.” – Paul Pennington, The Revivalist Warren Wolf BIO Warren Wolf is a multi-instrumentalist who lives in Baltimore.
