"Teenage drummer-composer Corrie Dick showed admirable imagination and talent on his debut download, 'Scenes For Someone'."
- Jazzwise (One To Watch For 2011 Section)
"Dick is a thoughtful, responsive drummer who doesn’t hog the leader’s limelight, preferring to support the musicians in front of him and let the music breathe, and there’s a strong sense of melody as well as a growing individuality in his compositions."
- Rob Adams, The Herald
"Corrie Dick played with relaxed clarity and genuinely musical propulsion"
