Picked No. 1 World Music Band in Indianapolis
Nora Spitznogle, NUVO 2007 Night Life Guide

"Oddly Enjoyable"
- Allen Richmond, All Frets Magazine

"Il Troubadore took the audience from frenzied to mesmerized. They played a set beautiful to both eye and ear. The performance was an invigorating take on Albanian and Bulgarian folk music. Cellist Jon Silpayamanant made the sound of his instrument soar as his horse-hair bow began to unravel."
- Amber Kerezman, NUVO Newsweekly

"Witty, unique and rockin"
- Noah Mueller, Lafayette Music League

"...However, the music from Snakes Rising and Il Troubadore was radiant...the energy never wavered; it was fantastic."
- Lindsay Greene, Pucknation

"[M]ay be one of the only bands to feature both ABBA covers and traditional Irish songs on its set list."
- Jessica Halversen, INTake

"...the notorious local band, Il Troubadore...has caused a stir in local music circles."
- Steve Hammer, NUVO Newsweekly

"Il Troubadore is unique. Pop Folk with a classical bent, you might say. Or perhaps it's Baroque, I dunno. But they mix together original material, quirky pop/folk covers, and traditional/classical tunes -- with stunning craftsmanship. I find them endlessly entertaining, and I know you will too."
- Kit Malone; Indianapolis singer-songwriter

"This is the best music I've heard at an alternative media festival."
- George Stoney; Indie filmaker and Public Access advocate

"The duo of Jon Silpayamanant on cello and Robert Bruce Scott on mandolin and vocals provides one of the most unique sound experiences in Indianapolis. Their combination of traditional classical music and non traditional arrangements of current and recent musical history favorites is always a surefire hit wherever they go."
- Joh Padgett; The Irving Theatre
