REVIEWS
"Fantastic !"
- James Brown
“Perhaps the biggest surprise (when visiting American at Reykjavik Jazz Festival) was a late-night set from the Icelandic retro-funk group Jaguar. This seven-piece ensemble nailed the late- 60s sound of James Browns´ JBs, and its energy made a marked distance from the source irrelevant."
- Aaron Cohen, Down Beat magazine (Feb 2004).
“Jaguar are all about the music, its as simple as that. if you are still in the dark then you are one of the few. More and more people are starting to find out what this band is about.”
- Fiona Mckinson, London Extra 26 August-1 Sept 2004
