Press Reviews
"This artist performs tunes that are smart, nice and sweet but never saccharin. Like James Taylor but from a witty, unique perspective. It's time for "nice" to make a comeback." -- LISTEN.COM "A self-deprecating wordsmith who knows a thing or two ab out melody... A modern folk popster who seems in love with the world and doesn't need to make himself the center of it. Refreshing." -- SEVEN DAYS "Good clean fun. No sh*t." -- PETER MULVEY "Hurray for johnvoorhees.com! Folksingers and web des igners take note -- [Sites like this will] hurl singers like John into the ears and hearts of the general public at a speed so fast it will send record companies scrambling to figure out just what this 'Internet Music Revolution Thing' is all about." --JOSHUA TICKELL, co-author of "From the Fryer to the Fuel Tank" |
