Larry Corban

“Larry Corban and I have been playing together for a couple of years and we came to point where we were ready to go into the Studio. Larry’s tunes are challenging and fun to play and I feel we had a relaxed and swinging session aided by the great Steve williams on drums. I hope this Cd will garner more Larry Corban fans.” – Harvie S

Larry Corban: The Circle Starts Here (2012 [2013], Nabroc): Guitarist, based in New York, second album, a trio with Harvie S on bass and Steve Williams on drums. Soft metallic lines (some nylon), S does a fine job of beefing up the sound. 4.5/5 stars – Tom Hull, Jazz Prospecting & Village Voice

Larry Corban, The Circle Starts Here (Nabroc). Belgian-born, NYC-based guitarist Corban unites with bassist Harvie S and drummer Steve Williams in a set list of calm daring. Corban experiments with various guitars and strings, all the while giving each trio-mate a starring role. Almost all originals, Django would be proud of this re-energized Gypsy guitar. – Ann Porotti, WTJU Charlottesville, VA.
