about

Guitar Player Magazine
"…rich harmonic textures come across like Cirque du Soleil playing the Grand Ole Opry with some heady downtown jazz landscapes tossed into the mix…"

mwe3-com
"…Dream Dictionary is a masterpiece of 21st century guitar-noir…"

Premiere Guitar "Dream Dictionary"
"…Campilongo plays like he’s engaging in a long, very personal conversation: It ranges from heated to relaxed, angst-ridden, and even a little flirty—but it’s always fluent, spontaneous and full of nuance, texture, and emotional truth."

USA TODAY
"...There's an eyes-half-closed vibe about the song (Here I Am), as a soft and sinister guitar solo sneaks in, gentle and mysterious as rising smoke…"

VINTAGE GUITAR MAGAZINE
"….on Dream Dictionary, his patented Telecaster tones take on a greater dimension as he conjures a world of stark harmonics, crushing twang, edgy note selection, and sly humor…

"Editors' Picks" DownBeat on Dream Dictionary
"…Campilongo is an artist freely following the pull of the muse, whether it takes him to dark, haunting corners or inspires him to reel off a light, smile-inducing jaunt…"

Village Voice NYC
"…this nuance-savvy guitarist's new Dream Dictionary contains symbolism to spare…"

DOWNBEAT
"…Campilongo is an artist freely following the pull of the muse, whether it takes him to dark, haunting corners or inspires him to reel off a light, smile-inducing jaunt …"

No Depression
"… Campy picks, bends, and squawks his way through twelve tunes that demonstrate his uncanny ability to infuse the well-trodden soundscapes of Americana with a beautifully eclectic and instantly recognizable electric imprint…."

The ToneQuest Report
"…savor the afterglow that Jim Campilongo music casts, lingering long after the last note has faded…no one is walking in Campilongo's footsteps, nor is he treading in the long shadows of the past…"

Jim Campilongo Brooklyn, New York

THE NEW YORK TIMES
"Through the lean ropy sound of his Fender Telecaster, Mr. Campilongo connects American styles (Blues, Rock, Country, Jazz, R&B) in a sly knowing way."

THE NEW YORKER
"Jim Campilongo holds court. American music is a melting pot of influences, but few guitarists capture the nuances as well as Campilongo does." ... more

Wonderful music, thank you Jeff Parker. I like the idea of "slight freedom" as a musical concept - some rules, but more freedom. I feel like he takes you by the hand and leads you into the drone, gently. It opens up a whole new world. Astonishing. joff curtoys
