   About the cedar




download from itunes This here is the quickest, easiest way to purchase our new album,
but not the most enjoyable. Come to a gig, we'll hang out, it'll be great.





"Utilising an assortment of instruments, from ukeleles to clarinets to glockenspiels, The Cedar are a quaint, intelligible group with a beautiful ear for melody. "
Scott Johnson, www.egigs.co.uk, The Thekla, Bristol, 29th January, 2007

‘Ambidextrous arrangements, great dynamic swoops, familial banter and a veritable Womad of instruments,, the lasting impression is one of a quite wonderful and sumptuous performance.’ The Fly Magazine

"Twinkling beauty, like the happy resolution of gently opening a music box...A band blossoming into something rather special". Venue Magazine Bandstand Stage Glastonbury 2008

" ... an involving experience, but then we have come to expect nothing less from The Cedar."
Keith Clark Evening Post 3rd July 2006 Keynsham Music Festival.

"The Cedar's gangly charismatic frontman had a winning way with the audience and hit another high note with a stripped down duet with the keyboardist, Eleanor Murphy. Nice Ukelele"
Venue Magazine Ashton Court Festival 22nd July 2006
