Reedist Aram Shelton plays with a thoughtfulness and structural rigor that's rare in a twentysomething jazz musician, but he also brings a deeply improvisational mind-set to each of his projects...The quartet Arrive isn't as well-known as [his other groups Dragons 1976 and Grey Ghost]—that should change when 482 Music releases its debut this fall—but it's as good as anything Shelton's had a hand in. Its tightly arranged, emotionally muted originals have a lovely chamber-jazz feel, with musicians combining to repeat unison phrases and carve out spaces for solos; the pieces are elaborate yet never sound fussed over."—Peter Margasak, Chicago Reader
