NEW GIG LIST BELOW! |

"SCORCHING POST-AYLER TENOR SAX"!
- Jazzwise
"Beck's abstract resources extend to all manner of whistles and squeals, but his tenor sax playing is a resourceful development of Evan Parker's" - The Guardian
"Ace tenor saxophonist Mick Beck incorporates an amplified bassoon (in a way) that defies even the most oddball stereotypes" - All About Jazz
"..pushed along by Beck's scorching post-Ayler tenor sax." - Jazzwise
"Able to double- and triple-tongue on a double reed, he creates dissonant textures you wouldn't associate with the usual orchestral instrument" - Cadence Jazz Records
