Snow Owl honored by Jazz First
Juan Garcia-Herreros, also known as Snow Owl, was recently honored as Best Jazz Artist by Jazz First, a cooperation between Jazzeit Magazine, Quinton Records and Erste Bank. Jazz First seeks to identify young jazz talent and then support them in the furtherance of their career.
Jazz First calls Snow Owl an "extraordinary bass player" and says "[h]is characteristic sound and charismatic performances bring new perspectives to the Electric Contrabass Guitar within a musical genre which is more commonly associated with the Acoustic Bass."
