“Glimpses into a Grand Vision
While [Lundbom] does occasionally dial up distortion tones and skronk in audacious fashion, he primarily plays with a clean tone, while exhibiting a remarkable fluency and sense of freedom… Lundbom’s obvious love for the melodic free-jazz stylings of Ornette Coleman is apparent from his ambitious and gripping interpretations… Throughout the set, Lundbom draws on his broad experience as a sideman and collaborator to add swathes of color from outside the jazz world. …That sense of drama and narrative carries through to [“2016:EPs”] and the guitarist stakes out some original territory… This is courageous improvising and syncopated swing from a new crew of like-minded renegades.”
