"Containment would never define Josephine Davies – This lady draws upon, and continually explores her own inner intuitive expression.  She transmutes those ideas energetically with musical freedom,  manifesting with her cohorts (drummer James Maddren. and bassist Dave Whitford) thought-provoking, emotionally providing, and a mind-body connection Jazz music that can reach us deeply". (Nigel J. Jazz in Europe)

“What makes the album so striking is Davies' refusal to abandon melody even as she lets go of defined changes. Her irrepressible tunefulness not only leads the improvisers in fruitful directions but also offers the listener an open door into the music.”

Downbeat Magazine

"Davies has an exceptionally powerful and clearly defined tone, with which she turns melodies into expressive sculptures" (BR Klassik)

​"Enlightenment, clarity, tension, sensuality, freedom, spontaneity... 'In the corners of clouds' has potential for the album of the year 2018" (Deutschlandfunk Kultur)

"A truly gifted and imaginative saxophonist, Davies undoubtedly possesses the art of the improviser and has produced an album of exuberant lyricism and consistently engaging tunes.”

(All About Jazz)

“Satori is so full of ideas, vision, and joyful improvisation that one can only take pleasure in the listening.” (UK Vibe)

“Consistently inventive, witty mood…the whole is a testament to Davies’ lyrical flow and her collaborators ability to go with it.”

Jazzwise Magazine

“Satori represents a strong statement from Josephine Davies as she takes on the challenge of the saxophone trio format and succeeds brilliantly. In this exposed setting her own playing on both tenor and soprano is confident, fluent and imaginative.”

(The Jazzmann)
