"For years, free improvisers have explored the tactile aspect of performance, in which the nature of the encounter between the player and the instrument becomes the subject of the music itself. Bisio is one of the few musicians that has managed to meld this high-concept sense of physicality with the soulful charge of jazz. His fiddle-high, scraped overtones create a tangled choir that is impossible to resist; his expressiveness with the bow is unmatched. Having whirled the listener into a transportive state, he gently shows the way out..." (Paul DeBarros, Signal to Noise)

"The only clear predecessor for his conception is the brilliant and largely forgotten David Izenzon...who played in Ornette Coleman's classic 1960's trio." (Stan Dick, Spectator, Raleigh)

"...a sprawling talent in the avant-jazz world." (Andrew Bartlett, Seattle Weekly)

"... Bisio turns out to be something of a force of nature on the bass..." (Richard Cochrane, Musings)
