"A gently timbered voice with heartfelt
lyrics backed by some very stellar acoustic players. I detect a bit of
Merle Travis in Steve's guitar playing."
- Gary Fjellgaard
"Nice Playin'"
- Valdy
"With his fine original songs, solid picking and easy-going humour,
Steve Palmer earned a strong encore from our very appreciative
audience."
- Vic Bell, Artistic Director Nickelodeon Music Club
"Steve Palmer played our club and definitely won over hearts and minds"
- Peter Picquet, Full Moon Folk Club
"The Islands Folk Festival was the perfect
venue to showcase the music of this dedicated Vancouver Island
singer/songwriter/guitarist. Honest, unvarnished and inspiring, served
up in a wood smoked tenor accompanied by deft emotive picking, this is
classic coffeehouse folk which takes us back to an earlier era when
singers didn't need to plug into an amp to make their point, artists
like Tom Paxton, Eric Anderson and Ian and Sylvia regularly made the
charts and music was less about image and all about integrity. Let it
shine, Steve!"
- Brent Hutchinson, Music Director, Islands Folk Festival
"Refreshing, relaxed, Steve's performance
brought back so many great memories. I heard someone in the audience
say-'Boy can this guy pick!' Amen to that."
