Mix together the styles of Pat Metheny, Mike Stern and Stevie Ray Vaughn and you have the recipe for one of the hottest new contempo-jazz guitarists on the scene today. Receiving the "2008 Rising Star Award" from GigMasters, the New York Times states "he not only fuses jazz and rock, he complements it with warm chords of funk soul, rhythm and blues". George Kanzler writes "Lenz is of the 20 New Jersey musicians 40 and under who should be a big part of the state's jazz future". Curt Yeske, Trenton Times, says "Lenz leads an original band which has best been described as a spirited mixture of sounds in the contemporary vein, ranging from the sprightly to the hard-wailing". |
