"The hardest working band in America! Averaging 250 shows a year!"
"Far from being just another jazz-rock fusion band, Marbin occupies their own stylistic space. More an instrumental rock band than a jazz fusion band, Marbin's music seems to come from the guitar hero world of Joe Satriani, Steve Vai and Joe Bonamassa. But there's a good deal of other stuff going on in their music. Steeped in blues, surf, and the folk music of their native Israel, in addition to jazz- rock, Marbin consistently avoids easy pigeonholing. Part of this is due to the fact that the band is based on the musical partnership of two virtuosos: guitarist Dani Rabinand saxophonist Danny Markovitch. People stopped thinking of saxophone as a virtuosic lead instrument in rock music decades ago, but Markovitch seems determined to change that view single- handedly." - Dave Wayne, All About Jazz
"Jazz-fusion, rock, folk, blues, prog-rock, bits of heavy metal, and straight jazz...it's all here folks in one nice little package. [Marbin is a] band that needs to be on your immediate radar if they aren't already." - Pete Pardo, Sea Of Tranquility
"Danny Markovitch might not be the best driver in the world, but he can play a heck of a sax, he is a monster." - Allan Holdsworth (R.I.P.)
"Guitarist Dani Rabin and saxophonist Danny Markovitch generate lightning fast unison choruses and dynamic solo sprees atop the rhythm section's tight, razor-sharp focus." - Glenn Astarita, All About Jazz
"Marbin is a crazy talented group making music hard to pin down but easy to appreciate. - Victor Aaron, Something Else
"Let’s just say I’m completely blown away from this group and their albums." – Zachary Nathanson, Music From the Other Side of the Room
