Musique intelligente mais pas intellectuelle qui émoustille les sens en apportant une sensation de plénitude profonde.
D'un lyrisme qui ne laisse personne indifférent, le résultat est une musique absolument novatrice et différente de tout ce que l'"on peut entendre aujourd'hui
Dan Behrman, Son et Images
Toss out your preconceptions about the banjo because you've not heard the instrument shine in its proper light until you've heard what this Belgian-born Montrealer has done with it on his second self-named release. Genius comes to mind. Progressive doesn't quite cut it. He clearly takes a page from the versatile lead of players like Béla Fleck. Citing Gershwin, Erik Satie and Django Reinhardt as influences, it's a little surprise that Donis is a supreme genre-blender.
Eric Thom, Penguin Eggs
He and his band just kicked my ass left my audience with jaws in their laps.
