"...In front of the stage for the second set, I got a much better earful of guitarist Jake Hertzog and his trio — and was glad of it. The wiry, diminutive six-stringer, his unruly locks tied back, has many of the Metheny earmarks that you've maybe come to love and fear at once: the daunting fingerwork, the harmonic inventiveness, the organic, riff-based melodic freedom, the folk-like melodies. Along with the wow! factor comes the fear of just too damned much.

Jake Hertzog performs with the Naked Brothers Band on Good Morning America...More performance announcements with this group coming soon.

Reviews of Jake Hertzog Trio from Summer 2007:

"...And guitarist Jake Hertzog's varied, spare attack and knotty writing take jazz-rock fusion in yet another provocative direction"

–Boston Phoenix (July 7 2007)
