What Jazz Live said about the The Royal Garden Trio (February 21, 2011) :
Find out what's happening in Brightonwith free, real-time updates from Patch.
The Royal Garden Trio is
made up of: Mike Karoub (cello and string bass), Tom Bogardus (tenor guitar and clarinet), Brian Delaney (acoustic and electric 6-string guitars).
The members of the RGT have
beautiful stories to tell. They are virtuosic as well,
but they know that too much is not a good thing. So their solos are thoughtful
speech, not diatribes; their notes ring and
resound in the air. Each player creates
compelling melodies, and they work together like
a swing version of the Budapest Quartet.

... I am thrilled by
Karoub's cello: earnest, dark yet lithe. Mike's conception is never
overblown, but his solos can be majestic. Delaney's guitar is part
Lang, part Lonnie Johnson. Bogardus romps on his
guitar and his clarinet playing is easy, fervent, balancing Dodds
and klezmer.
And the trio works together
to create something beautiful, varied, and cheering. Their performances are
marvelous vignettes, the guitarists switching
lead and rhythm, Bogardus playing a chorus
on clarinet; Karoub bowing and then
plucking in a propulsive manner (across bar lines) that
recalls Steve Brown.
And they swing - without even trying hard.
