"Thanks for sending me a copy of your CD. I've enjoyed listening to it. I only end up keeping about 1 of 20 CDs that are sent to me (and I'm not a big fan of old-timey music), but this is most decidedly a keeper. I will be playing it on my show at WPKN"

"Dear Brick Road Ramblers,

You have fans all over the world - even in Norway. I listen to your CD every day and get to like it even more. You have many songs I know already - and I'm taken in with  Marching Through Georgia.

Thank You... "

"The Ramblers are a home town string band with a great mix of tunes and solid musical muscle. They are one of the most popular bands that play in our cafes. And they really are home grown!... I love these tunes, I love these guys!"

from Phillip Nabors

owner of the Mustard Seed Market & Cafe

 

"Are you looking for some old-fashioned, relaxing summertime fun? Check out the Brick Road Ramblers, one of our most popular musical groups. I've attended many of their performances and enjoyed each one immensely. They offer us an opportunity to forget our daily cares and immerse ourselves in the pleasure of upbeat, fun music!"

"Bluegrass with a midwestern flavor... If you like your bluegrass with folk and blues influences then this is the album for you. If you like warm summer evenings with good food and good friends then you should already have this album. This is what porch music should be."

Rated 4 stars by CDBaby reviewer Ronald Shewbridge

 

"Nice mix of strong vocal harmonies and acoustic string band music, with a great selection of tunes. These guys like lots of different kinds of music, and their enjoyment of playing is evident on this latest release."

as reviewed by eFolkMusic.org

 

"Last Saturday was probably the most fun I've had at a concert in 20 years. No joke, you guys were fabulous!!  (Our family members) have already expressed an interest in attending one of your shows in November."

from Steve L.

"I thought the performance at The Rose Theater was great. I hope you perform there again. Mom really liked it too. I loved the arrangement of "Man Gave Names to All the Animals". You guys achieved the "fun" quality I think Dylan wanted but couldn't deliver himself. Also enjoyed the Rambler Kids. What a great way to keep families close..."

from Sam K.

"Just wanted to let you know that my son and I really enjoyed your performance at Mustard Seed last Friday... It was refreshing to see and hear such a down to earth group of guys doing what they love to do... Dave, you sounded just like Gordon Lightfoot!"

from Charlotte S.

"I wanted to say that my wife and I enjoyed your performance at the Rose Theater last Saturday... Thanks you for being such good guys. We look forward to seeing you all someday soon."

"I'd like to thank members of local Akron band, Brick Road Ramblers, for their inspired interpretation of "Sunny Afternoon" last cold and gloomy Saturday at the Graf Growers Harvest Fest. The only instrumentation provided was bass fiddle with percussion by eight pairs of snapping fingers plus gorgeous four-part harmony! Thanks guys -- you made my day!"
