"Darrek Anderson is a man of few words. True, heartfelt words, but still, they're released sparingly and usually in the form of a song. "
"Though the group is lyrically driven, a strong, masculine instrumental style provides essential backbone to Anderson's candid words."
-Gateway- March 2007. - (Edmonton, Alberta).
".... some of the most sincere and well crafted songwriting around..."
-VUE Weekly- (Edmonton, Alberta).
"Darrek Anderson and the Guaranteed, plays a well written and heartfelt kind of country... real and satisfying in a way that makes you feel connected to something simple but somehow very right." - (Beachwood Reporter, Chicago, Illinois).

Yo! Thanx for being online buddies with us. I'm looking for storytellers and radical rockers for my radio show Sound Resistance on Vancouver Co-operative Radio (www. coopradio. org). Keep in touch if you have a CD worthy of airplay. I'm also writing for BC Musician magazine and am always looking for good touring stories. Keep in touch, thanx very much..joey taken in Barkerville British Columbia at Artswells Festival 2008
Still feel burned because the Dub Vulture show was smoked out at the Blackened Dog? Sob no more. Dub Vulture plays the Empress Ale House this Saturday the 16th. 4PM! No Cover! Sue!
Finally got the new record a little while back. It sounds great dude. Except for that pedal steel player. Was he the only guy you could find in this country??;)
Might see you guys down here, if I'm back from Texas on time.
Hey Darrek thought I'd let you know I'm in Guitar Player Magazine (U.S.A) this month in the top 8 mypace guitarist section. Great review of my world music influenced song Elishala. Please check it out if you get a chance. All the best!
