| Montreal-based alto saxophonist Cauley has slowly been acquiring a reputation in the avant-garde/improvising community for both his identifiable sound and singular response. FINland is his debut project as a leader. Composed and improvised texts of great beauty and detail. | |
| "Ferocious and
amusing, a reminder that people who go out convincingly are those with a strong sense of
the communicative thrust of 'inside' playing." Hi-Fi News/Record Review "Strong but measured musical statements that overwhelm with sensitivity, balance and detail." Orelo "Sophisticated free Mingusness." The Wire |
