“Jay Hoggard has long ranked with the greatest vibraphone innovators. Jay’s music is positive, spiritual, uplifting, and happy. He masterfully draws on traditional and contemporary musical vocabulary to develop new directions for the vibraphone.” – ALL About Jazz
…“Jay Hoggard’s music, which feeds off of jazz tradition and mixes in ethnic influences, world percussion, and classical traits, has always stood out from many other vibraphone players.” ~ Dan Bilawsky, Jazz Improv Magazine
