here's what some critic's are saying:

“Sean Nowell is my preferred kind of tenor player: quick, smart, tough, and counter intuitive. He is the real deal” - Thomas Conrad

"Nowell is a monster tenor saxophonist from Alabama who is slowly taking hold of the New York City scene. I can’t overstate how important to take hold of a crowd right out of the gate and Nowell did just that. He had me! With extremely refreshing compositions and chops that would make Tony Atlas proud - I would advise the New York City jazzbo to keep an eye out on Mr. Nowell." Christopher Lams - JAZZ INSIDE NEW YORK (Aug 4, 2009)

"...a precociously talented straight ahead player, with a gritty and exuberant approach displaying traces of such illustrious forebears as Dexter Gordon, John Coltrane and Michael Brecker." Chris May -ALL ABOUT JAZZ ONLINE (Aug 20, 2009)

"Playing with the sophistication of a John Coltrane and the grace of a Lee Konitz, Nowell unfurls the sax for intense tenor work dominating the band and delivering an excellent session of straight ahead contemporary jazz elevating “The Seeker” to an elite category." Edward Blanco - EJAZZ NEWS

"The Seeker's predominant vibe is a modern day re-energization of the East Coast hard bop of the 1950s and 1960s. The result is a chili-hot stew of galvanizing intensity." Christopher Lams - JAZZ INSIDE NEW YORK (Aug 4, 2009)
