Quotes
“An intense guy…and certainly not a New Age wimp…his playing is percussive and aggressive, his arrangements austere.”—Associated Press “His music explores soundscapes and moody textures, but with an underlying rock’n’roll attitude, with intense tone and technique.”—Acoustic Guitar “An incredible talent on the acoustic guitar…a player with soul as well as expertise.”—Guitar World “A welcome new twist on the ever expanding role of the acoustic guitar.”—Fingerstyle Guitar “No doubt guitarists will be drooling over (and struggling to emulate) the various techniques he employs, while other listeners will be mesmerized by his nuanced, textured melodies.”—Jazz Times “The music of Rob Eberhard Young meets or exceeds anything out there in the acoustic guitar arena. Along with a supporting cast of some of the best players in the country, Rob breaks new ground on the acoustic guitar.”—Alternative Music Press “He’s incredible.”—Bob Ludwig “Not your typical froufrou New Age artist…Strongly original!!!”—Guitar “Rob’s unique rhythmic style of guitar playing is right up my alley, lending itself to a wide and dynamic range of drumming. We had a blast just hanging and recording this album.”—Rod Morgenstein “…Inventive…”—Billboard “He’s got a slightly harder edge than most acoustic guitarists. He really attacks the guitar with intensity. More importantly, he writes really good tunes.”—John Diliberto “Right now I’m working on an acoustic arrangement of ‘Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap’, then I’m going to the hot springs to meditate on ‘Mr. Possum’…I’m thinking power chords on the parlor guitar…”—Michael Hedges “Rob’s music has vibe and soul. He’s not afraid to take left turns to see where the road takes him and although he has virtuoso chops, he’s much more interested in creating a musical space that is personal, passionate and deep…”—Michael Manring “So you think this guy is pretty good, huh? Well he’s not! I punched him in at every bar!!!”—Kip Winger |
