Some nice things that people have said about me.

“…kick-ass solos from all its players, including trumpeter Nick Walters, guitarist Anton Hunter and tenor saxophonist Ben Watte.” – John L. Walters The Guardian

“Gang camaraderie as well as talent meant young musicians can blossom here.  Notably  …  the atmospheric, effects-driven guitarist Anton Hunter” – Selwyn Harris Jazzwise

“Funky, punky, angular sax/guitar-led modern jazz from this newly emerging group fronted by Stockholm-based reeds man Andreae they work through evolving textural washes and noir-ish folk moods through to full on skronk. Well worth a look.” Time Out (HAQ preview)

“Hunter’s “Pope” has an atmospheric, almost noirish feel courtesy of the composer’s sparse, evocative guitar chording  …  Andreae’s “Cacillia” is one of the most accessible pieces on the record with a strong melodic hook that provides the springboard for a blistering solo from Hunter.” Ian Mann The Jazz Mann

“signs of real writing talent in guitarist Anton Hunter; his spiky melodic style and heavy riffs reminiscent of John Zorn’s early downtown groups.” Chris Ackerley The Sound Of Now

“HAQ music is free jazz with grunge textures, galvanised by  Hunter, the subversive of the group (responsible for the brooding tour de force Pope)” Mike Butler – Manchester Evening News/Dyverse Music
