-Marc Myers, Jazz Wax

“Daversa's fearless exploration...takes him off the beaten path, as he creates bold and ballsy big band music for the modern epoch.”

-Dan Bilawsky, All About Jazz

“Junk Wagon is not some composition of yesteryear on steroids, but it is the future of big band jazz and it is now.”

-Esther Callens, The Birmingham Times
