'Unlike many young artists, Raymond Yates doesn't simply fill his songs with influences like borrowed furniture. Rather, he restores what he has heard to its former beauty, in the process creating something fresh and new.'~ Soundbytes, http://communication.ca/soundbytes 'Soulful, down to earth… (this) fine traditional songwriter and exquisite vocalist… unites a solid repertoire of acoustic rock and poetic folk, with a nod towards the blues. Raymond’s talents are exceptional… (his) well-crafted songs blend the sounds of a classic artist with a fresh contemporary approach.'~ Steve Scott, www.hootholler.com 'A singer-songwriter of tremendous depth and power, Raymond brings his original music to audiences with astonishing dynamic range. From gentle, heart-felt ballads, to roof-blowing rockers, Raymond delivers intelligent, poignant, and playful lyrics with a musicality and sincerity that is the very soul of music. And he usually has a surprise or two up his sleeve as well.'~ Kieselhorst Concert Series |
