SPUYTEN DUYVIL

"Spuyten Duyvil's songs draw on the roots of American music and history, but in the hands of eight superb performers they crackle with energy that's both contemporary and downright irresistible." —John Platt, Director of Communications & Special Projects, "Sunday Breakfast" Host WFUV Radio

"With "New Amsterdam", Spuyten Duyvil delivers a wonderfully boisterous collection of songs that define what "roots" music should sound like. Spuyten Duyvil roll like an old time tent show, but instead of selling worthless snake oil, they deliver a package of gems, well crafted tunes and stories that are pure fun to listen to." —Ron Olesko, "Traditions"Producer/Host WFDU

"Wow… from the opening notes on New Amsterdam, the energy, the excitement, and the pure joy of playing and singing together is palpable. Spuyten Duyvil is more than a band, it’ s a community. Infectious and fun- inviting us in to sing, dance, and celebrate. I’ m basking in their musical glow." —Joe Crookston, Songwriter/Performing Artist

"From the first note Spuyten Duyvil grabs your attention, drawing you in with their joyful, uplifting and spirited music. This is contemporary old time music at its best played with heart, soul and sass." —Maggi Landau, Producer, Caramoor American Roots Music Festival

"I can't remember when I enjoyed an evening of music more than at the WFUV Living Room show watching Spuyten Duyvil. The group possesses an incredible musical energy that was immediately infectious to everyone. It was like getting your favorite friends together to play and they all happened to be really great musicians!" —Tina Shafer, Artistic Director of SongCircleMusic(songwriting credits include Celine Dion, Phoebe Snow, and Donna Summer)
