   About Project Notion
Interesting, experimental Leicestershire band, pushing their organic arrangements to the limits with complex rhythms, acoustic guitar virtuosity aplenty and warm jazz infused female vocals. - Summer Sundae 08

The first band of the evening was Melton Mowbray based four-piece Project Notion. A haunting and soulful mixture of Folk, Jazz and Pop – it’s a sound aching with emotion and shining with ideas. Gently paced, intelligently written and delicately arranged; they are all clearly very talented musicians who know how to get the most from their subtle direction. Tori has a beautiful voice, powerful yet deeply tender, she defines and compliments their sound perfectly. Combined with a mesmerizing stage presence and a warm, engaging onstage manner it made for a great performance. - Surface Unsigned UK

Melton Mowbray’s Project Notion summery sounds mix jazz fusion with modern folk topped by the gorgeous voice of Tori Maries. - The Donkey

They came from nowhere and now they are everywhere! One fine band with quality vocals from lead singer Tori Maries, this Melton Mowbray band has a fine set of songs and are already putting on polished sets. Beautifully crafted songs and rich guitar backings, this is one delightful band that we will want to see more of. - ArtsinLeicestershire

Project Notion looked different before they even started and as soon as they struck up their first song they revealed themselves to be strikingly original, the most original of the weekend without a doubt. None of us judges could place them, it was pastoral, hypnotic, magical. - Kevin Hewick, Supersonic 08

We've been working on a little project connected with Leicestershire bands, most of which we'd come across in truth was fairly easy...until we stumbled across Project Notion. Project Notion have a sound that you just cannot reduce to a few words of passing reference without much headscratching. Let's coin the brand new genre of math-folk and wonder where the hell it's going to go when it's not merely a self-produced demo. - Sweeping the Nation

They started playing and within seconds, what came out of the speakers was extraordinary. And as they played, you could see the audience thinking the same thing - whatever this is, it's truly special. - James Gates, Inspire Magazine

Melton Mowbray five piece melodic band, Project Notion, is almost in a class of its own. Striking originality, delicious melodies, enchanting as it is magical. Tightly coordinated, the quintet has carved out a niche for itself in the music scene, an amazing collective presence. - ArtsinLeicestershire

Their sound is as finely crafted as a Persian silk rug, and as dense and sinuous as the rainforest. Both chaotic and captivating, the audio landscape they create has a certain punk element hidden in its vastness. - Nicholas Buzzard, Shrapnel Music

Not heard your recodings before now, it translates even better when recorded...which isn't always the case. Particularly the vocals, you have a very rich tonally balanced recording voice....good shit! Tom Grigglefish
