Anmeldelse af Peter Tougaard i JydskeVestkysten fra 15. maj 2006:
EN DANSKER I NEW YORK
Ikke alle danske jazz-musikere med basis i New York er lige højtprofilerede i den hjemlige andedam, og jeg indrømmer da gerne, at jeg ikke kendte navnet Stephan Kammerer. Det gør jeg nu. Kammerer har nemlig sammen med tre dygtige kolleger udsendt cd'en "Krackedlenz Project" der byder på ti gedigne jazzkompositioner af meget høj kvalitet. Steve Elliot, guitar, Matt Clohesy, bass, og Brian Wolfe, trommer, er Kammerers bandmedlemmer og medkomponister på denne varmt svingende og dynamiske cd.
Stephan Kammerer har studeret saxofon på Berklee College i Boston og har haft en mangfoldig koncertvirksomhed med New York som fast base siden 2001. Kammerers saxofon - og Elliots guitar - er en oplevelse, men som jazz-fan ikke bør lade sig gå forbi.
