San Francisco Bay-area pianist Debbie Poryes brings a warm touch and personal approach to her new quartet recording. Supported by her longtime collaborators, drummer Dave Rokeach, bassist Bill Douglass, and saxophonist Bruce Williamson, Poryes's new album combines rhythmically sophisticated takes on standards like "I've Got the Sun in the Morning" with several of Poryes's own works, such as the harmonically luscious "Lake Dream" and the gospel-tinged "A Prayer for a Child." "A stellar outing that introduces a group that plays with an interactive verve and elegance a knockout listening experience." - All About Jazz.
