“Passionate performances of songs associated with the marvellous Billie Holiday made for a great night’s entertainment at Foundry 616. Rodric White’s arrangements allowed the talented six-piece band to display their considerable skills allowing the musicians to entertain and display their skills as soloists and as an ensemble.” – Mark Pigott, Sydney Arts Guide
“It surprised me to hear [Rodric] announce a Keith Jarrett number. Even more so when he played an extract from the Koln Concert. That took guts and he did it well.” – John Fenton, Australia & Pacific Gigs Review
