  • "I was struck by the sheer presence and melodic heft and ease of Nick Costley-White’s playing. The ideas flow naturally, the sound is gorgeous, there’s just nothing missing"

    Sebastian Scotney, London Jazz News

  • “A masterclass in the under appreciated art of playing beautiful, laid back swing”

    JazzWise

  • “His clear tone, assertive rhythm, smooth effortless articulation and sophisticated harmonic chops have made him a popular choice of sideman with established high-end operatives”

    Jazz Views

  • “Guitarist, Nick Costley-White has a flair for melody and he crafted some beautiful lines

    JazzWise

  • “Costley-White proves both his virtuosity and ability to write subtle and engaging tunes”

    All About Jazz

  • “One of the brightest stars on the British jazz scene, elegant and impressive”

    The Jazz Mann

  • "Costley-White has fantastic facility, can swing the phonebook and goes more deeply into the harmonic inner stitching of tunes than most. He can totally unpick salient motifs to swoop in on and run with when he extemporises on favoured themes"
