"...Quinn shows that he has chops to spare!" Bluegrass Unlimited, July 2003.
"Drive is an essential characteristic of traditional bluegrass banjo playing
and Chris Quinn has it in spades. Chris is a rock solid Scruggs style banjo
player who throws in melodic constructs as needed and doesn't miss a note
along the way. Anyone needing a clinic in rhythm and timing; pay heed"
