PRESS QUOTES:
"Look
out world - Romi Mayes is coming!"
-
No Depression lOOK
"Romi
Mayes is somethin else. She writes great songs and
she's got a great voice, but you should see her try to outrun a
train.
I think I had more fun on tour with Romi Mayes than I've ever had
in my life."
- Gurf Morlix, producer, musician
"Romi
Mayes may as well be from Texas"
- No Depression Magazine
"Music
from the heart and soul, Romi Mayes makes it look easy."
- Bob Harris, BBC
"Romi
Mayes is the hardest-working person in the Americana scene right
now. That's good, because she has a great new record out, and it
deserves to be heard."
- Slaid Cleaves, songwriter
this
is one dangerous dame."
- jeffreymorgan.info
"She
is going to blow you away."
- Michael Nave, talent buyer, Woody Guthrie Folk
Festival
"If
you were around the Canadian music scene in the late 80's and experienced
the early buzz surrounding the music of k.d. lang (at least the
exctiement part of that phenomena);then get ready for another chapter
of the same thing..."
-Larry Delaney, Editor, Country Music News
"The simple charm of Mayes' melodies and the transfixing beauty
of her torchy twang command the centre stage."
-Darryl Sterdan, The Winnipeg Sun
"Romi
Mayes is a charming and passionate singer/guitar player whose years
of experience in Winnipeg's unpretentious community have assured
her confidence and a deep understanding of true roots music."
-John Scoles, Proprietor, Times Change(d) High and
Lonesome Club
"
rowdy
enough to incite the most scandalous of bar brawls, yet sensitive
enough to track down and return the knocked out teeth to the proper
recipient the following morning."
- Shain Shapiro, The View, Hamilton, ON
