"These guys are awesome!"

Carter Alan, host of "Sunday Morning Blues", Boston's highest rated Sunday morning show. (January 17, 2010) 

"The Porch Rockers are the most versatile, toneful, sophisticated, classy, and best-dressed blues band around".

Dolphin Striker (July 7th, 2009)

"Thanks to The Porch Rockers for playing at Castle Hill 2008 Independence Day Celebration. You gave a terrific upbeat performance which was perfect for the day's festivities".

"Tim Gartland has a smooth, seasoned vocal delivery while his harp playing is emotive and soulful. Joe Giardella wears all the six string hats with slick chord voicings and slippery slide work. Bassist Dirk Van Gulden and drummer Wilson Brown keep things tight and anchored with deft precision.

'COVERS' is another well written chapter in The Porch Rockers' evolving musical journey."

"What makes a cover song good is when a band totally reinvents it to make it their own. The Porch Rockers have done this, which makes "Covers" quite an enjoyable listen. The CD is highlighted by … Bob Dylan's "Watching the River Flow" and "When I Paint My Masterpiece," Leon Payne's "Lost Highway," and the ultimate test for a band: The Band's "The Weight," which shows just how well the group works and meshes together.

Be sure to check out The Porch Rockers, and pick up a copy of this mighty fine record".

"The Porch Rockers have grown with leaps and bounds with this new release. If you have not “Heard the News,” you are missing one of the best releases from a New England band this year".

“Heard the News” is a true pleasure. I love the singing, songwriting and musicianship".

"The Porch Rockers deliver with “Heard the News”: Using the “less is more” approach, The Porch Rockers make the most out of their considerable talent by playing together as a band. The Boston based quartet presents a dozen original tunes, effortlessly performed by musicians who sound like old friends".

"The Porch Rockers travel a bluesy road playing a mixture of roots, country, gospel and Americana".

"The Porch Rockers take a simple, honest and intelligent approach to the blues. They expertly interpret the electrified blues of yesteryear and give it a fresh edge".

"The Porch Rockers’ latest CD, “Heard the News” couldn’t have come at a better time. This blues, rootsy record is a mellow as a spring breeze and the perfect soundtrack for  kicking back on your porch".
