“Ross Hammond is no doubt the best unknown electric guitarist I've heard in many years and this disc is proof of his ambitious abilities...”

-Bruce Gallanter, Downtown Music Gallery Newsletter (2/2012) NYC

 

"Ross Hammond is the image of the intense artist - but when he puts a pick to his guitar strings, the image rises to full-fledged life. Hammond’s latest disc sheds some light on the inspiration and complexity behind his pensive approach...." 

-New York City Jazz Record, http://nycjazzrecord.com/


"West Coast fans of the guitar's outer limits may be feeling a bit lost with L.A.'s Nels Cline moving to New York City, but this Sacramento-based guitarist is fully capable of easing some of those withdrawls..."

-Chris Barton, Los Angeles Times (9/2012)

 

"...like a guitar-based "Ascension."

-Glenn Hall, Exclaim! (review of Adored, 4/2012)

 

"Ross Hammond can express himself with a guitar better than most people can with the English language."

-Sacramento News and Review (2010)
