"Johnny's voice is easy and smooth, with a distinctive, creative bent and a light
vibrato like John Pizzarelli". Fred Bouchard - Downbeat Magazine "Trumpeter and vocalist Johnny Souza has an incredibly strong and pure tone as well as a fluid attack that produces well articulated, melodic lines. With his latest release "Meet Me In The City", Souza has once again raised the bar of jazz trumpet." Eric Cohen, Music Director - WAER - Jazz 88 - Syracuse, NY |
