Press Reviews

Legacy #5 - "Melodic Fusion, Smooth Jazz, call it what you want... but listen to it. Gently rolling piano sounds and fantastic production. A masterwork of sweet feeling and soft sounds. This is relaxing and peaceful. Brings to mind visions of driving down Highway 81 on a western Pennsylvania autumn day with the top down while viewing the changing colors of the trees populating the Pocono mountains.... Pull over and have a view...."
- Banker, MP3.com listener and artist patron

Legacy #5 and The Night We Met - "Well, of course, there's a reason Phil does so well... and that's the sheer tasteful - and tunefulness of his work. With nary a sharp edge or harsh sound in sight, Traynor's brand of Easy Listening is about as easy as it gets. As soft as a cloud made out of marshmallows and cotton candy... and almost as sweet. I especially like how the synth voice pads sort of sigh their way into the refrains... ahh!"

Footsteps - "Phil is an instrumental jazz musician on the West coast of Florida. Phil plays most of the instruments on these songs, and "Footsteps" includes a tasteful solo by guitarist Rick Garner. The song, a finalist in the Billboard Song Festival, is a breezy taste of southern Florida lifestyle.... I pick up a taste of Firefall in this song, as well as most of the influences that Phil lists. A well crafted song with an enticing melody..."
