"Collectively The Texas Horns are the best horn section in the business but as songwriters they work alone ... [Mark "Kaz" Kazanoff says:] "We wanted to find out what we could be as a horn section but also as song writers and arrangers. We also wanted to make music that, though obviously still blues based, was more contemporary, and might stretch our vision of what we could do, as well as challenge our listeners with songs that were new and unique and more modern". The Texas Horns "Get Here Quick" succeeds on every level".

"A specialized synthesis of Lone Star State blues, Southern soul and jazz. The band soulfully imprints its musical personality on 10 originals (five of them spirited instrumentals) and on two by renowned tunesmith Gary Nicholson".

"On Get Here Quick, the trio - joined by a dizzying array of guests - steps into the spotlight and show just what a road-tested horn section can do. While each member of the Texas Horns is a skilled performer, the three musicians are a force of nature when playing together. The piercing highs of Al Gomez' trumpet, the honey sweet tone of Kazanoff's tenor sax and the glorious honk of John Mills' baritone all blend together to form a fat, wall-shaking sound that never fails to cut through the mix ... Whether riffing along with a percolating rhythm section or stretching out on a solo, Mills, Kazanoff, and Gomez consistently sound at the top of their game. Brimming with talent and inspiration, the Texas Horns deserve a spot on every blues fan's radar".
