 ‘are Punch Brothers the best band on the planet? They would surely have to be contenders’ The Herald

‘Punch Brothers are the tightest, most impressive live band I have ever seen’ Boston Globe


‘brilliant, audacious, original and, above all, entertaining; Punch Brothers put on a show that [pushes] the boundaries of excellence in contemporary music performance in virtually all directions’ The Times

Last seen at Southern Fried with the Grammy-winning Carolina Chocolate Drops in 2010, Rhiannon Giddens’ solo trajectory under the sage guidance of super-producer T-Bone Burnett in the last year or so has been stratospheric. He brought her onto the Inside Llewyn Davies soundtrack, the all-star New Basement Tapes project and produced her rapturously received solo album, Tomorrow Is My Turn, an eclectic collection of songs inspired by a diverse range of women singers and styles.

‘a solo debut of phenomenal vocal power’ The Guardian


‘Americana in its purest form, where gospel, folk, blues, soul, and Celtic melodies all make sense on the same album when interpreted by a dexterous vocalist and multi-instrumentalist of Giddens’s calibre’ Boston Globe


‘many styles that she amazingly makes all her own. The voice of an angel with the many facets of a beautiful diamond…Man, what a voice and talent’ No Depression

 ‘an exceptional record’ The Telegraph
