"If he wasn't amongst us already, somebody would have to invent Roberto Cassani, he's such a blast of fresh air in a tired, self-regarding world." (John Davy - Music News).
Roberto Cassani sings his stories with lots of humour and a Scottish-Italian accent.
A bit of a poet, although never serious. A bit troubadour, a bit clown from the circus.
A superb songwriter and a master entertainer, Roberto Cassani is cheering up audiences nationally and internationally, as well as getting radio play and featuring in some of the most prestigious festivals around.
"A true emerging star with side-splitting humour and clever lyrics which will see him firmly in place as a national icon"(Alan Wilson - The Courier);
"A refreshing new talent" (The Edinburgh Fringe Festival);
"True to life, funny and says something different about Britain today." (Woven Wheat Whispers);
"A real original and an unbelievable performer" (Orkney Today);
"Chorus-driven, clap-along fun with personality" (The Herald);
"Absolutely brilliant" (Jim Tait - Shetland Times);
"Cassani Rocks!" (Medicine Music);
"Irresistible!...A real one-off!...Hoorah for Roberto Cassani!" (John Davy - Music News).
