"PETUNIA:
... he has a unique, surreal style all of his own ...
His live performances have been likened to an
Avant-Country night club scene from a David Lynch
movie! One to watch, BONANZA thinks!"
- Martyn Myers, Bonanza radio on ResonanceFM,
London, England
"... his music is unmistakable."
‑ CBC MAINSTREET, Gary Middleholtz
"... rousing organic sound.. "
- Dig This Real Magazine, NEW YORK CITY
"(His) tunes reveal an almost innate sense for the past ‑ Think Hank Williams, Lefty Frizzell ‑ filtered through an insightful and unique perspective."
- The VANCOUVER Sun
“Playing a mix of blues, jazz, French cabaret, Mexican folk and bluegrass, Petunia has an enchanting voice ‑ sometimes haunting, but always warm, few vocalists have such a charming sensibility. He can yodel too ..."
‑ Fast Forward Weekly, CALGARY
"Every song is a unique gem."
‑ Bill Smale, CKUL Radio station, LETHBRIDGE, AB
"He's an amazing player!"
Janna Graham, CHMA Radio station, SACKVILLE, N.B.
".. grinnin' ‑ wide entertainment of early southern jugbands ... blur‑fast finger picking style, dancin' and meandering lyrics and stories and rich, warm vocals occasionally punctuated by heartfelt yodels ... songs are unique and current."
‑Terminal City Weekly, VANCOUVER
"With his lonesome‑whippoorwill yodel and Eisenhower‑threads, Petunia conjured up the ghost of the late Hank Williams"
‑ Georgia Straight, VANCOUVER, January 4th, 2003
"Everybody's talking about this ultracool, hillbilly cowboy singer from Quebec who keeps traveling back and forth across Canada singing his songs in little joints & coffee houses, collecting new friends & fans ‑ wherever he goes. From what I can tell so far, he seems to be the real McCoy, A delightful mix of Hank Williams, rural rap, & appalachian stringband all rolled into one tight, entertaining package."
‑ Tom Wilson, Jackdaws pub, CALGARY
"REAL UNDERGROUND MUSIC. Foot‑tapping country & western laced with rock and jazz."
