2003 Western Union " Cook is an experienced tunesmith with a gift for finding the right words. His vocal chords have a soft, dusty tinge that is perfectly in keeping with the rural inspiration of his rural-folk-blues themes. Western Union telegraphs strong evidence that Cook's art deserves attention far beyond the local roots music scene." Roger Levesque, Edmonton Journal "The songs are well-arranged and well-delivered...charming." les siemieniuk, Penguin Eggs " A jewel of a record...Cook is an excellent guitar player." Roots Town Music, Belgium "Cook sounds like a man born to sing acoustic blues. From song to song one gets the sense of hearing true artistry and conviction." D. Gordon-Smith, Vernon Morning Star, BC   2002 Trouble Light "...a Real Masterpiece!"

Lark Clark, CKUA Radio, AB 2001 Trouble Light "Cook puts a fresh spin on centuries-old themes and is just as adept at taking swipes at our modern-day cultural phenomena." Peter North, Edmonton Journal 2001 Trouble Light "Kevin Cook's Trouble Light was one of the few good records I heard last year. He's very careful with the information in a song and I get the short story kind of involvement with his work where you have to paint a little yourself. As a listener, I take this as a compliment and as a guitarist I am merely Jealous. Kevin's writing and performance are consistently superior" Michael Marra, Singer-songwriter, Dundee Scotland 1998 Happy Accident "The best locally produced recording so far this year…" Stew Slater, See Magazine   news | bio | recordings | projects | reviews | press kit | dates | contact | kevin cooks Copyright © Kevin Cook Music 2002 - 2008, all rights reserved
