Rupert Wates & Friends

"Joe's Cafe"

"Truly gripping lyrics with great themes and troubling, witty messages.  An
inspirational artist" (Leith FM Radio, Scotland UK)
"Man! This guy sings from the heart and then some.  Each song yanks the listener
fully into the story and rhythms, not to mention an emotionality imbuing Wates'
plaintively melodic voice.  Every cut's a gem, completely absorbing, enthralling,
and thus we have a new and unique songwriter/musician already in the front ranks"
(Folk And Acoustic Music Exchange)
"A delight to listen to...These are songs crafted with care and imbued with
sincerity and conviction" (Britsound Radion New Jersey)
"You feel, not just hear, his music and lyrics.  He ended his set with "I Dream", a
song reminiscent of Jacques Brel's work, to a standing ovation" (Eileen Batson,
North Carolina Songwriters Co-op)
 

"Rupert Wates and friends perform songs from his forthcoming album 'Joe's Cafe'.
Based on true stories, the songs evoke the experience of ordinary American people
from the dust bowl to the present day"
