LA Jazz Music Examiner Oscar Brooks recently praised Ross’ work in his review of Face To Face: “The album has the sound of soul, blues and a little bit of funk to it.  Honestly, all 14 tracks on the CD are good. Ross uses his deep and sensuous voice to give these songs a different flavor that is a joy to listen to.” Click here to read the entire review.

“Face To Face” also recently debuted on the Smooth Indie Chart and is chartbound on the JazzWeek Album and Single Charts. The Professor’s unique take on America’s“Ventura Highway” is also popping at smooth jazz stations and the timeless Johnny Mercer tune “Autumn Leaves” is gaining airplay on traditional jazz outlets.
