PAT WICTOR

Pat Wictors songs, his blues tinged slide guitar and mellow performance style impress the hell out of me. Watch out for this guy. Hes a terrific new talent.
- Gene Shay, WXPN, Philadelphia

If you can make it to only one concert this year, let it be a show by Brooklyns own Pat Wictor, who plays heart-felt blues-based roots music like the only begotten son of Bonnie Raitt (same red hair!) and Chris Smither. And unlike blues interpreters who have seen too many stormy Mondays with hellhounds on their trail, Pat is also an excellent songwriter whose new/old compositions will send you on a journey through the old Dock Boggs and Son House 78s. But these arent old songs, theyre originals that, to paraphrase Mr. Smither, are still flopping around on the deck.
- Jim Motavalli, WPKN, Bridgeport, CT

Soft-spoken and articulate, in the 1930s he could have been a dust bowl preacher. The sermons, accompanied by the choir of his slide guitar, would have brought comfort to many a soul.
- Richard Cuccaro, Acoustic Live

His performances are delicate, nearly evanescenta daring and unusual approach for a blues singer who give listeners fresh perspectives on such familiar material as Son Houses Death Letter and Skip James Hard Time Killing Floor. Wictors compositions are especially memorable.
- Blues Revue

JUD CASWELL
http://www.judcaswell.com

"...one of the leading singer-songwriters on the current scene... highly original... He's a young man who is wise beyond his years. Caswell sings with charming warmth in his voice. By the end of the CD you want to know this man."
- Rich Warren, Sing Out!

"Jud Caswell is much more than a great singer and guitar player, Jud's songs take you into the storyteller's world with clear images and characters that come to life for the listener."
- David Wilcox

Folkwax gives "Blackberry Time" a 9, saying, Caswell's fluent, warm, honey-like melodies and his undoubted skill with his six-string piece of wood and steel... both constitute aural delights... Jud Caswell is a rare and eloquent song poet who truly deserves your time and your God-given listening apparatus...
- Arthur Wood, founding editor of FolkWax
