"Nick's writing has that instrinsic quality that I call the repeat factor. Good music, whether pop, jazz or classical can be played over and over (repeated) without boring the listener... and so it is with this CD. I can listen to it often without wearing it out." G. Stringfield/Jazz Guitarist
"It's time for some new jazz standards. Piece Offering walks a fine line between smooth jazz and modern jazz. The end result offers something for the jazz aficionado, yet remains accessible to those hearing jazz for the first time. These melodies will stay with you long after you power off the stereo. Miles Davis fans will find much to like here." - Karen Queen/Hampton Roads Monthly Magazine, Dec/2002.
"An album that harkens back in spirit to the great jazz albums of the '60s and '70s, Piece Offering by guitarist Nick Kepics will impress long time jazz buffs and newcomers alike. Successfully covering a wide range of jazz guitar styles, Piece Offering is swinging and reflective, tastefully melodic yet compositionally challenging making it an excellent choice for jazz guitar buffs." - Robert Silverstein/20th Century Guitar Magazine
"I recommend Piece Offering to anyone who loves jazz, no matter what kind. Nick's talent for composing is equaled only by the band's triumph in conveying these up-beat rhythms to the listener. Together, they crank out smooth and sophisticated tunes that demand the listener's attention - this is not your ordinary "background" music.

It's a perfect companion for an evening at home, whether you want to chill out or spice things up. Enjoy!" Paul Wright/jazzreview.com
"Piece Offering is a CD of instrumental trumpet-driven bluesy Latin jazz that is very easy on the head and honestly, really kicks ass. It reminds me of Steely Dan. Piece Offering is powerful and very visual in a "movie score" sort of way. Even if you think you hate jazz, check this stuff out. It's a fine example of how music need neither be fast nor lou
