Critical Mass...
"Most drummers assume the role of human metronome but not Kane, who may be the poster child that swing is something you feel, not necessarily something you can be taught, and have the groove come off so effortlessly." -Critical Jazz Blog
"Matt Kane approaches his music with a mix of authority and joy" -Kansas City Star
"Kane propels things forward, with his dynamic and straight-ahead intensity. -All About Jazz
Album press
"The title of Matt Kane‘s fourth full album release as a solo artist is "The Other Side of The Story," but could easily have been dubbed "Kane Style".
This album again represents another evolutionary step for this jazz drummer that came from Midwestern beginnings in the land of Mark Twain dreams in Hannibal, Missouri into the jazz dream world of New York City. The cascade of sound on this album is akin to a personal narrative of his life as a musician that has traversed both geography and hard work. With firm Kansas City roots as a part of a mature music backbone, he has spent
quality time writing his own novel with the help of master mentor Dr. Michael Carvin, who was behind the scenes on this project. In turn, Mr. Kane has become a influential teacher and player to legions of young jazz cats out there in cool land. This new project will have listeners enter a realm of 'repeat & shuffle'. Meaning, you will want to listen to this album over and over again and shuffle your brain into the thought of what could be next for this talented modern-day drummer that continues to add to his jazz force in modern music." -Joe Dimino of Neon Jazz
