"SONGS & WHISPERS" - LABELARTISTS
“A unique talent”
Roger O’ Donnell, The Cure
“A musical poet. RECOMMENDED.”
London TimeOut
Aireene Espiritu (USA)
"Aireene's songs are mostly originals. They just sound like songs Alan Corney might have collected during one of his cross country recording jaunts. They carry both historic sweep and personal nuance. The melodies are full of bluesy longing, fingerpicked delicately on her tenor ukulele."

| Axel Kruse (D) |
“His songs are arranged as litarary works and have a really philosophical claim...There are touchingly sad songs, where the chest voice clings on the in arpeggio played chords...Depending on themes and contents he is changing his style of singing from reserved to explosive...“ - Weser Kurier
 |
| A Seated Craft (AUS) |
"Her music weaves narrative folk with well-tempered indie-sensibility; she linkes handmade arrangements with dreamy wordplay and a warm, soft and clear voice."
Wunderland-Festival
"I enjoy Bobbo's music very much, it's much better now than when he lived with me."
- Bobbo's Mother

BBC Introducing
"A sparkling gem of a discovery amongst a myriad of Singer-Songwriter Albums, and one that shines btighter than almost all others"
Metal Discovery
Echo Bloom (USA)
“The title track is a hypnotic and emotional piece of work that soars as much for the composition as a whole as well as the restraint shown by Evans and company vocally. I struggle to compare Evans to another singer vocally - and struggle even more to compare the songwriting to any of his contemporaries. And I think that’s what I like the most about Blue.”

Ingrid Veerman (Belgien)
“Dichter bij het ware troubadoursbestaan kan je niet geraken en het levert in het geval van Ingrid Veerman nog een verzameling bijzonder fraai songwerk op.”

English: “Closer to the troubadour existence you can't get, and in this case it also provides a collection of very beautiful songs.”

Johnny Parry (UK)
"Johnny Parry vaults his way from being just another singer-songwriter to something more akin to the UK's equivalent of Sufjan Stevens, an artist with a distinctive musical vision."

'It is easily the case here, as Kaurna Cronin’s warm voice works soft and haunting folk songs as well as happier breezier folk-rockers. His is a light touch, but there is plenty of strength underneath with the band or his acoustic guitar picking.' - David Hintz (folkworld.eu)

| King Of The Tramps (USA) |
"On a scale of one to ten the Joyful Noise album is a solid ten. These five talented musicians not only know the roots of rock and roll, they enrich them every time they get together and play and believe me THAT is a joyful experience to be sure."

Norman (USA)
“Into the Eventyr” is full of hearty, harmony-filled rock in the spirit of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and Matthew Sweet, but the edgy “Hawk,” the band’s synth-lined new single, may be the beer’s best match.”

Robert Sarazin Blake ( USA)
“Blake being a master of stage presence and completely at ease, he was capable of bringing the crowd to a complete silence. His ability to make a story out of a moment, a moment every audience member is a part of no less, is the one of the best forms of concert entertainment I’ve ever experienced.”

„Die Musik des Duos erinnert mit ihren englischsprachigen Texten und eingängigen Melodien an die Musik von Indiebands wie „The Shins“ oder „Mumford & Sons“. Die Lieder sind melancholisch, hoffend und sehnsüchtig, sagen Lebewohl oder feiern das Leben.“ – Nordwest-Zeitung, 21.05.2013
