In an interview with the Irish Examiner's Philip Watson, Trish named American trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire as the best live jazz act in the world right now, saying "...the spirit and intensity of the band was absolutely amazing. Not only are they stunning individual players, with great instrumental ability and a sense of freedom and depth, but they all have a great commitment to the groove, which really moves people. It was inspiring." Read the full interview here.

Listings for the tour were carried by The Irish Times Ticket and Hot Press Magazine. Trish also spoke to Cormac Larkin at The Irish Times about her career choice and admits she almost followed same path as her father. "When I look back on it now, it seems funny that I didn't realise earlier that I wanted to do what I do now. I was really seriously going to do medicine, but just at the last minute I changed my mind." Read the full interview here.
