CRITICS CORNER:
"David Karl Roberts revives the big sky, mountains, and forest....Roberts has a knack for crafting songs that spring out as if they were already 50 years old. His tunes have an organic, familiar feel.....he tells the story, but his guitar ultimately sets the mood."
Jared O'Connor -Portsmouth Herald- Spotlight , Portsmouth, NH
"Roberts knows how to write and deliver a song. He's comfortable onstage and in the studio, and you can trust pretty much anything with his name on it"
Bennie Green-FACE magazine, Portland, ME
