Things they say

  • "Hayseed is, in my mind, on the same level as Bob Dylan and Neil Young and Van Morrison. That's just what I think, that's my opinion, for what it's worth. I don't say that about everybody who comes down the pike... His music is a brilliant blend of Southern literary wit, style, and grace, backed by the true roots of folk and country music. Hayseed's the real thing." - Lucinda Williams www.lucindawilliams.com

  • "Hayseed's music is roots music. Not from just one tree but a whole grove: bluegrass, old-time, country, gospel, folk, rock, soul..." - Miller Williams (poet, father of Lucinda Williams) www.press.uillinois.edu/poetry/williams

  • "Hayseed won't fit into any category unless there's one for existential hillbilly poets. Maybe after people hear him, there will be!" - Emmylou Harris www.emmylou.net

  • "Ths is GREAT stuff! Well thought out spiritual philosophy, very organic. You get the feeling that if it rained on Hayseed, songs would fall out of him. THIS hayseed is going to town!" - John Prine www.jpshrine.org
  • "Hayseed's singing is among the most honest you'll ever hear." - Jimmy Ryan (Blood Oranges) www.jimmyryan.net
