“Shot × Shot takes deceptively simple, bare-bones structures and turns them into spacey, infinitely layered improvisations.”-Down Beat
“A unique album, and an auspicious debut”-Exclaim!
"One of the year's most striking and satisfying jazz albums." -- Chicago Reader
“Let Nature Square is the first studio album from Philadelphia acoustic jazz group Shot × Shot. The quartet's self-titled album, recorded live at the historic St. Mary's Church at the University of Pennsylvania, was heralded as one 2006's best debuts by a jazz band. Critic Francis Davis wrote, "It's been ages since I've heard a debut recording this adventurous and assured," and the album received praised in the pages of Down Beat, The Wire, Signal to Noise, All About Jazz, and more.
Let Nature Square is a giant leap forward for the band. The album documents the evolution of young players growing into their own individually and stretching the boundaries of a collaborative relationship. The music of Shot × Shot has always been nuanced and innovative, but now it has earned the distinction of being truly extraordinary. Shot × Shot is one of the country's best young jazz groups, squarely pushing on jazz's boundaries.”
