  • Press Quotes
    PRESS QUOTES ASSOCIATED PRESS: Wise words pour forth from Chris Smither – observations and aphorisms, similes and internal rhymes, run-on sentences and concise quips, all in a conversational flow. The careful construction of Smither’s lyrics is a thing of beauty and the bedrock of his bluesy folk music. Smither is an excellent acoustic guitarist and first-rate foot-stomper. NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO: [Smither] taps his foot to keep the rhythm, much like the late blues legend John Lee Hooker. His finger-picked guitar lines are sleek, unhurried and insistent. And then there's the voice – equal parts gravel and molasses. (I edited a little out) ROLLING STONE: Bathed in the flickering glow of passing headlights and neon bar signs, Smither's roots are as blue as they come. There is plenty of misty Louisiana and Lightnin' Hopkins in Smither's weathered singing and unhurried picking. So fine. MOJO (5 STARS): Hundred Dollar Valentine is a thing of profound beauty; deep, sad, wise songs, allied to perfectly crafted arrangements, from a a man who’s live long enough in darkness to address the big, heavy questions with a lightness of touch. OXFORD AMERICAN It was that rhythmic push-and-pull, that New Orleans sensibility that made Smither stand out NEW YORK TIMES: With a weary, well-traveled voice and a serenely intricate finger-picking style, Mr. Smither turns the blues into songs that accept hard-won lessons and try to make peace with fate. MAVERICK: Cast your mind back to the first time you heard Hank Williams, Big Bill Broonzy or JJ Cale and remember how good it felt.

  • A Dynamic, Unforgettable Artist Whose Signature Style Has Made Him a Legend Among Blues Musicians. Terry Robb Is One of The
    A dynamic, unforgettable artist whose signature style has made him a legend among blues musicians. Terry Robb is one of the top acoustic blues guitarists of our time. His signature fingerpicking style has earned him international acclaim from worldwide audiences, music critics and his distinguished peers. Incorporating elements from the Mississippi Delta music tradition, ragtime, country, swing and free jazz, Robb has built a unique blues sound that has made him a legend in his prolific music career spanning more than four decades. The multitude of awards Terry Robb has received speak to his seminal talent as a blues guitarist. Robb has been inducted into both the Oregon Music Hall of Fame and the Cascade Blues Association Hall of Fame. He single-handedly defined the Muddy Award for Best Acoustic Guitar, winning the honor 19 consecutive years from 1992 until 2011. Upon his retirement from the competition in 2011, the award was renamed the “Terry Robb Best Acoustic Guitar” Muddy Award to honor his landmark contributions to blues music. Robb was born in British Columbia, raised in the United States and currently resides in Portland, Oregon. He achieved greatness at an early age, performing with Ramblin’ Rex of Frank Zappa / Captain Beefheart fame, Canned Heat’s Henry Vestine, and steel­ string guitar icon John Fahey. At age twenty-four, Robb produced and played accompaniment on Fahey’s 1984 release “Let Go,” which received a four-star review by Rolling Stone and led to numerous subsequent collaborations for which Robb served as Fahey’s producer and session guitarist. As an acclaimed producer and session guitarist, Robb has contributed to many award-winning projects.

    Steven J. Schmidt Singer/Songwriter/Guitarist www.stevenjschmidt.net There could be no better title for this CD (“Heartland”). With these songs, Steven has courageously opened up his heart and invited the listeners to experience an amazing reflection on some of the highest and lowest moments in his life. His guitar work is extraordinary; embracing the sad whimsy of a Nick Drake and the creative fury of a Leo Kottke. It is a perfect CD for anyone who enjoys great guitar and great stories." Ken Onstad, President - New Folk Records/Loud Folk Records https://www.discogs.com/label/240546-New-Folk-Records https://myspace.com/loudfolkrecords Steven J. Schmidt... a talented guitarist and gentle, introspective lyricist. Jeff Pieters, Rochester Post-Bulletin Rochester, Minnesota The audience engagement was amazing, not like another show I have been to in Rochester. Schmidt's songwriting was inspirational and diverse. The show had a great feel and it was cool to be involved with such an intimate event with a singer/ songwriter that has the portfolio Schmidt brings. Annie Henderson, C4 Board Member Schmidt's thoughtfully crafted lyrics weaved a series of stories for the audience to enjoy. The talented trio are truly masters at guitar playing and impressed the audience by performing on a variety of guitars and stringed instruments. The musicians' finger picking was clean and soulful. The performance delighted the audience with Americana music featuring stylings from folk, blues, and rock rhythms. We look forward to the Steven J. Schmidt Trio returning to perform at the festival again next year! Judy Hickey, Rochesterfest Midday Entertainment Coordinator www.rochesterfest.com "The Road" is more than just a well-recorded album.
