QUOTES

"Your powerful performance was one of the highlights of Kentucky Music Weekend!  You all were great and the audience really loved you, as did my staff and I."
Nancy Barker, Kentucky Music Weekend

"With a rare gift for audience rapport, Traveler's Dream held the house enthralled during the season's finale for the Indy Folk Series.  This was a magical evening of traditional music finely wrought--a program of well-honed musicianship well-received.  Truly masters of an incredible eclectic repertoire, Traveler's Dream ended the Indy Folk season in grand style."
Dan Henkel, Indy Folk Series

"The members of Traveler's Dream don't just perform, they share, they teach and everyone has a good time!  The band is exceptional for the way it blends artistry, skill and performance with a great openness and rapport with the audience.  We felt like we were invited into someone's home -- not just a performance venue for a concert.   It is inspiring to experience such skilled artists who have completely thrown themselves into their music.  It's infectious!
Phil Funkenbush, Illinois Historic Preservation Agency

"The first time I saw Traveler's Dream perform, I was thoroughly impressed with their music.  It is rich in energy, harmony, and tradition. . . they're favorites!
Bill Staines, Singer-songwriter

"In reading your nice brochure, some very positive claims are made about your abilities and results.  It is wonderful that the statements made are understatements that do not begin to convey the rich talent and profoundly positive effect arising as you sing songs that touch our souls and stir long-forgoten memories of warmth, family, and heritage. . . Folks, you should have a machine tied to the number of times your CD is played -- I've played it constantly for eight days, over and over."
Larry Vaughn, Vice President of Corporate Finance, Commonwealth Health Corp.

"We sponsor several programs in the arts every month, and the Traveler's Dream concert was one of the most enjoyable performances ever presented.  You absolutely charmed the audience with laughter, anecdotes, and song!"
Bernadette Duvernoy, Hayner Public Library, Alton, IL

"I didn't just like your program, I loved your program!  You are very good at playing all the instruments and you really cheered me up!"
Casey Dickman, 4th grade student

"Your French and Irish folk music filled the International Gallery as well as the entire museum with rhythm and joy!  You are always popular with our visitors--children and adults alike.  I've heard many compliments from both staff members and visitors for the way you relate to children and hold their attention with your wonderful music."
Julia Shildmeyer-Highway, Indianapolis Children's Museum

Comments from audience members submitted after a concert in Downer's Grove, Illinois:
"Well Done!  Such beautiful music and interesting selection of instruments.  Charming and bright presentation."  "Thoroughly enjoyable.  Denise and Michael obviously love what they are doing."  "They were terrific!  Their ability to play so many instruments so well was impressive and enjoyable.  Their personalities added to the experience - very likable.  Please have them back!"
