PRESS:
“RAIN OR SHINE” receiving great reviews in national press: Vintage Guitar 9/09, DownBeat Magazine, Blues Matters Magazine, The All Music Guide, Blues Revue Magazine and more, check out the press page.
DownBeat Magazine July 2010: Somewhere between traditional & unconventional, this seasoned Iowan singer-guitarist sounds fully involved with controlling the tension in his plain-spoken “ruff and tumble” blues. Neither showy nor too self-effacing, he applies his metal tube to strings in mostly solo performances, adding his talented guitar-playing wife, Vicki, on 3 songs.......Frank-John Hadley
Blues Acres Productions first 2 Independent releases have made the top 100 CD pick in Real Blues Magazine. “Rain or Shine” is #22, “Brand New Place” is #55.
