“somehow treads an impossible line between fragile beauty and gnarled anger” – Phil England, The Wire
“focuses primarily on intuitively creating sound on the electric guitar. Influences such as avant-garde, musique-concrête and noise are never far away in his idiosyncratic sound palette…” – New Wave of Jazz
“I have no idea how Grigg plays his instrument, but it is barely recognizable as a guitar.” – FdW, Vital Weekly
