Listen to what the people are saying about Trevor Jalla and the Universal Blues Band…

"Instrumentally the band is very strong with Trevor an obvious blues guitar hero in the classic post-B.B.King tradition...perhaps the bands greatest strength lies in the superb natural singing of Trevor Jalla. It is indeed a real pleasure to encounter an Asian University student who has mastered the difficult art of blues singing with such obvious conviction and startling aplomb." Victor Brox - British Blues legend and pioneer. Click here to read more

"No kidding, you guys have more punch than a young Mike Tyson, and an awesome snap. Not only do you guys sound like you've been playing together for years, you've got a mind-blowing 'Stephen King-telekinetics thing' going on between the band that absolutely tantalizes. Perfect timing and an acute sense of the music."
John Irving, Founder, Once and Future Blues (USA), "September blues future"

"This group has just the right virile voice, giving an understated, overall authenticity to just about everything they touch."
Terry Reilly, The West Australian

"…a cool demeanour, a voice built for the blues and an exquisite guitar sound more reminiscent of bluesmen thrice his age, would be remembered long after the applause had faded away."
Geoff Eu, Business Times
