Kiley - I just wanted to say thanks for the totally awesome weekend. I had a blast and I know a lot of people did, too. Just to let you know, I think Tangled Roots had the best Grass Seeds camp yet!!

Doug and Kandy - thank you for the wonderful concert and introducing us to Special Consensus.  It was a real treat to hear you guys, and discover The Special C.  The finale with all eight of you "jammin" will go down as a highlight of our local bluegrass experience!

Gary Stone, owner of Hobgoblin Stoney End Music in Redwing, MN. - I want to tell you how much I enjoyed your concert here.  You guys were superb. The show was not just the music but how well you played around with each other. It involved the audience in the experience. This is the way live music should be. There is a lot more to an act than just playing instruments. People went home reinvigorated and
reenergized.

Rich Cook - I want to thank you and all the members of the Tangled Roots for two lovely concerts on Friday, February 23, 2007.  It was great to have you at the Barnum Elementary School for the afternoon performance.  I thought it was great that Barry, David and you had
school lunch with the kids over noon hour.  I have talked with several
students and staff members this morning and they all enjoyed your performance. My wife and I had a great time at the evening performance in Moose Lake. She had a workshop on Saturday in Superior, WI. and was constantly informing people about the wonderful concert Friday evening.  I really enjoyed the opportunity to hear your music and see the talent that the four of you have in a auditorium setting rather than in a gym. It was nice to have you recognize "The Moonen Sisters" and their family after their performance. You play beautiful music and also have a great time performing.  It appears that you are having a great time as you perform and it doesn't get any better than that. Thanks again, and I hope to catch another of your performances in the future.

Jim and Cheryl - I can't tell you HOW MUCH I enjoyed myself when you guys were playing.  You guys are in a three way tie for best concert I have ever been too.  You are tied with Colin Raye, and Junior Brown. I am putting in for vacation tomorrow to get the weekend off when you guys are in Two Harbors.  I will GLADLY use three days just to hear you guys again!!!! Keep up the great music. And let me know if you guys are able to get up here or ANYWHERE close by.

Steve Hogen - Owner of The Red Trail Vineyard, Buffalo ND       I was truly amazed at your talents and abilities, and pleased at your personable natures. Thank you for making the evening something to remember. Your music and each of you are truly a delight.

Anita Hovland- attendee of the Grape Stomp at The Red Trail Vineyard, Buffalo ND - I just want to thank you guys for going the extra mile to do a jam session at the vineyard! That was an unforgettable evening for those who were lucky enough to have stuck around after the rain :-) The only thing better would be to hear that you were coming back next year..

Mona Thompson - Bismarck Bluegrass Festival                             I’d like to thank all of the members of Tangled Roots for taking the time to travel a good distance to share your awesome talent with us.  I especially enjoyed visiting with all of you. You are all very gifted, and I truly loved your music.  Please keep up the great job – I know you all are going to the top of the charts one day.

It had to be some kind of Bluegrass harmonic convergence that has presented this band to us fans!

I was pleasantly surprised when after expecting too much testosterone on stage, "Tangled Roots" proved they are balanced guys with their Midwest bluegrass hearts and heads in the right place. All are brilliant and accomplished musicians on their own with decades of experience, and when they come together, clear and rich harmonies and phenomenal instrumentation song after song, time and time again, prove a deeper level of quality and skill than you might expect on the surface. Oh no, this is not just another bunch of boys playing bluegrass. The whole is the sum of its parts and more! "Tangled Roots," is a band that is making magic happen masterfully while genuinely paying respects to the timelessness of the music. We are the beneficiaries--our ears and our tappin' feet--we're having fun and the band seems to be having just as much or more! Thank God these guys got together and are playing bluegrass with a(n) (positive) attitude!

(Reprinted by permission - Inside Bluegrass Magazine, May 2002) My wife and I saw Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder at the Medina Ballroom April 6. (2002) Of course, they were terrific. But I want to make a special point of applauding our local friends Tangled Roots for their wonderful opening-set performance. They did exactly what an opening act is supposed to do - make the audience very happy and enthusiastic, and scare the main act into working their tails off! Great job guys!

Katryn Conlin (Reprinted by permission - Inside Bluegrass Magazine, November 2002) When Tangled Roots steps up to the microphone, you know this band is special from the very first notes they play. The tempo is hot, the arrangements are sharp, the vocals flawless, the breaks fiery. They glide effortlessly through seriously challenging material, at ease with each other and the audience. Most of all, they look like they are having the time of their lives. And I do believe they are.

If these guys stay together....... their going to be dangerous!
