In the
Words of Others....
“one of the most popular
acts this year” Robert McCourty, Artistic Director, Islands Folk Festival, 2008
“Ed Peekeekoot is an important emerging Canadian Aboriginal artist and
performer”
National Campus and Community Radio Association of Canada, July 2006
“If you haven’t heard of native singer/guitarist Ed Peekeekoot then you should
check him out when you get a chance...He has the ability to capture and hold
your attention simply by his stage presence and once he starts playing his
guitar you are hooked.”
Monte Nordstrom, Static Magazine, Feb. 2005
"...modest, soft-spoken homeboy Ed Peekeekoot who blew the audience away (and
left the other two players on stage slack-jawed with amazement) with a virtuoso
display of musicianship..."
Rick Dennis, Cowichan News Leader
"...original native compositions to touch the heart and old favorites magically
transformed through remarkable skill and easy charm."
Cath Evans, Manager, 108 Resort
"Ed Peekeekoot looks like he should be wrangling horses instead of talking about
the poetry of music and painting wildlife pictures. but the huge broad
shouldered country and western singer is a man of many surprises."
Valley Times, Fraser Valley
"You definitely captured and expressed the sounds of nature such as the wild
animals and the howling wind through your musical interpretations. I find it
difficult to illustrate the relationship of music to nature. I have studied
music in Europe and Japan, but never have I experienced such music as your
performance."
Ilsa Greenwold, Instructor, Julliard School of Music
