Ramsay Rocks Festival

Alex Boiselle and Brent van Dusen were an excellent part of Ramsay Rocks 2009. Their style and excellent musicianship really added to our festival. The combination of guitar, percussion and voice really brought a great atmosphere to our outdoor festival and were a great fit to our family based audience. We would love to have them back for next year.

Thanks again,
Bob Baker

Mackenzie Towne Market Concert Series

I wanted thank you for the great work you put into the inaugural Mckenzie Towne Farmers’ Market. Your beautiful music helped to set the ambiance for our customers. Your unique slide guitar style, great chops and general good vibes will be sadly missed in the off season.

Your cool attitude and music is a must see. From scintillating slide to superior vocal stylings, to tonal harmonica playing, keep on keeping on. I look forward to seeing you at the market next year,

Matt Stuart

Thank you so much for your involvement in the 2nd annual Mountains, Music Memories Harvest Festival. It is due to your community spirit in performing with us on this special day, that the Festival is a success.

Your involvement has helped us to meet our goals of bringing people together to celebrate the lifestyle and the community here in Turner Valley. Thank you for being part of making this festival a success!

Hello Alex I'm up here on the mountain, chilling to good music on a full moon! Keep up the work, we sure do appreciate your music bro!

P.S I just overdubbed a bunch of stuff on your rain of deliverance, I did it for fun but I also think it's a good demo of what i could do on it! I'll send it as soon as I figure out how to convert it.
Peace
