"Yes, yes, a thousand times yes!...the Red Clay Ramblers are authentic... they play like angels auditioning for Gabriel." -- New York Times
"A great American band!" --Sam Shepard
"Wonderful!"--Garrison Keillor
"Quintuple threats! Calling the members of the Red Clay Ramblers triple-threats is to sell them a couple threats short. First and foremost, there's the group's genre- and decade-hopping live performances, multilayered affairs in their own right. Then there are the plays they write and star in, the collaborations and the soundtrack work, not to mention books."--Rick Cornell, Independent Weekly
