When the ToneQuest Report wrote, “…another stellar Campilongo record from the fertile mind of Jim Campilongo. How does he do it? Damned if we know…” they were looking at an overview of Campilongo’s fourteen solo releases and commenting on the music's growth and diversity. The Jim Campilongo 4TET is another step in this evolution.

The 4TET is driven by long time Brooklyn collaborators, Luca Benedetti, Andy Hess, and Dan Rieser, who all bring their sound and style to create a unique distilled power. Their chemistry, focus and mutual admiration is apparent in making this musical unit sound like a joyous army.

Billboard Magazine calls Jim Campilongo “an American treasure,” an accolade that this guitarist’s artistry and influential career has richly earned him. Time Out New York describes Campilongo perfectly, “New York has no shortage of guitar heroes but few cover as many bases as Jim Campilongo reveals a range that extends from seductive country-swing to atmospheric jazz and well beyond.” The New Yorker says, “There it was again: the stinging treble, the spooky overtones, the strings snapping and booming under his hands the sound of a Tele being played as skillfully and exuberantly as it can be played it sounded like nothing and nobody else sounded like Jim Campilongo.”
