“intimate…impressive..” Downbeat
“Fulton is equally impressive as a pianist with imagination and a vocalist who lends a personal touch to the lyrics. Lindquist is outstanding whether playing alto sax or clarinet. He has great tone on both instrument and seems limitless in his improvisational creativity. At Home is one of those "as good as it gets" albums.” - Jersey Jazz Magazine
“At Home is that rare record that manages to be sophisticated without being fussy, charming without being cute. It’s just two deeply musical people doing what they love — and inviting you to sit in the living room with them. You couldn’t ask for a better seat.” - Jazz Views
Champian sat down for an IN DEPTH interview with Morgan Enos’ of UK Jazz News to discuss the new album and recent changes in her life. Read it here.
“An absolute 40 carat gem!” - Bebop Spoken Here
“At Home is an honest and heartfelt musical conversation between two musicians who welcomed the opportunity to play songs they love in a style they revere and with a level of musicianship they display in the comfort of being at home.” -Papatamus Redux
“both sides of her artistry are delightfully integrated, working as a well-oiled machine…. [“At Home”] is catnip for Fulton fans…. perfect for kicking back and simply enjoying.” - Marilyn Lester, NYC Jazz Record
“The songs are polished to a soft glow, each note placed just so, each phrase weighted with respect….when the pair turn to their own songs modest, tender, unguarded….a different air fills the room. Here, suddenly, the music breathes.” - Paris Move
“At Home” was featured on ABC Australia’s Jazz Radio
“BOTTOM LINE: Earl Hines’ “You Can Depend on Me” (featured on this recording) defines At Home. Singer Champian Fulton depends on clarinetist/saxophonist Klas Lindquist to add his perfectly played and placed obligatos to her vocals. At the same time. Linquist depends on Fulton for her sensitive and smart accompaniment on the piano. As a result, you can depend on At Home for an enjoyable musical conversation of evergreens from the 1920s and 1930s and one original.” - Papatamus Redux
“At Home” is RINGER OF THE WEEK on JazzWeekly.com & they call the album “So, simple, so unpretentious and so cozy.”
Champian and Klas sat down with the award winning podcast, All Thats Jazz, for a personal interview. Listen wherever you stream, or click here.
