Departures Receives 4 Stars from Sydney Morning Herald

"All the world was a stage for Shakespeare. For US bassist Matt Geraghty it's a palette of sounds. He draws on elements of Indian, North African, Latin and Gypsy music to infuse and thicken his highly melodic compositions, doing so with a lightness and lack of self-consciousness that sets him apart from much fusion. Each piece is a touchdown at a new destination, accompanied by a cast including the gorgeous Polish singer Anna Maria Jopek and pianist/accordionist Gil Goldstein.

Beautiful and very accessible, this could be the pop music of a more sophisticated planet." -John Shand, Sydney Morning Herald 2012
