“… sounds nothing like any of them have done elsewhere. It is its own thing, newborn into the world.” DownBeat

“A jam band for the differently wired.” Avant Music News

“Everyone got to solo and stretch out at some point and all four members shined at different times. This was a near perfect set and one of highlights of this fest. This quartet were fabulous and should have a live recording out.” Bruce Gallanter. Downtown Music Gallery

“Saturday night's special was a groove-machined quartet called Void Patrol, with spidery guitarist Elliott Sharp, circular-breathing saxophonist Colin Stetson, bassist Payton MacDonald and drummer Billy Martin — he of stoner-jazz staple Medeski, Martin and Wood fame.
