Partisans have been thrilling audiences since its formation in 1996, with its tightly knit themes and a great freedom coming from years of playing together.

"This foursome are often cited as godfathers of the ferocious 'post-jazz' groups." - Times****
"...tricky zigzagging heads are played with flawless attack, and the quartet's trademark of seamless idiom and time-shifting within each piece operates with a gleeful tautness." - Guardian****
"Partisans present some of the most refreshing music I've heard in a long while, uncompromising, very well written and very well played. It demands serious attention. I hear in these players a sense of common purpose and resolve, and a strong command of a dialect uniquely suited to this music. It's heartening to hear music that looks to find its own particular place." - Steve Swallow
"It's bad, man" - Delfeayo Marsalis
"One of the most exciting all star experimental groups in Jazz today" - BBC Radio 3 Jazz Line Up
"Partisans were the highlight of the festival, jazz that makes you blink in its glare"- John Fordham, The Guardian, Cheltenham Jazz Festival
