Reviews of Garrison’s recordings have been published in a variety of international jazz magazines:

“His beautiful tone and effortless, fluid lines draw the listener in as only a select few have done...a fine guitarist who appeals on the sublime, emotional level of a Bill Evans or a Jim Hall.” —James Rozzi, Wired

“His active imagination is restless; his musical intelligence is acute; his standards are high.”—Thomas Conrad, DownBeat

“Pat Martino’s adventurous melodies, Kenny Burrell’s unhurried swing, and Jim Hall’s pensive harmonies echo within Fewell’s laid-back playing. He’s got a mature, lived-in sound that’s simultaneously cerebral and blue.”—Andy Ellis, Guitar Player

“Continually surprising change-ups in phrasing, technique and timing, along with a perceptive balance between forward linear motion and shifting horizontal timbres are the hallmarks of Fewell’s style.”—Milo Fine, Cadence

“…his recordings highlight his refined style, where carefully polished phrases are connected with logic and dressed with a velvety clean, brilliant sound.”—Musica Jazz (Italy)

“Fewell is a refined and gifted player whose Gibson L5 asserts itself with a round, full-tone. The synthesis of tradition and modernity is achieved in a clear and tasteful manner, both for modal forms and standards, as well as original compositions…”—Andrea Memeo, All About Jazz Italia

“…with phrasing that is simply flawless…he digs into harmonies with a clear and unique style, free of cliché.”—M. Ariodante, Axe (Italy)

“Guitarist Garrison Fewell is a find…one of the music’s best kept secrets. A fine composer and a sure stylist with a hearty mahogany tone…”—Bob Young, Jazziz

“Garrison Fewell performs flawlessly on guitar, gliding over the chords effortlessly.”—Steven Loewy, All Music Guide

“Guitarist Garrison Fewell has the maturity to appreciate the importance of connecting the dots: fitting ideas together and making them work.”—Nils Jacobson, All About Jazz

"The very title of Fewell's first Accurate CD - A Blue Deeper Than the Blue - suggests the layered indigo shades and poetic echoes heard from his guitar. Each note has shape and substance, each solo definition and flexibility... legato phraseology, ripe emotions, pristine beauties of sound." - Jazz Times
