Jerry Hall
Pacific Blues - USA:
"From Denmark comes Rene Evald, an acoustic artist with a surprising delivery and feel, playing blues and some very innovative covers by such icons as Bo Diddley, John Hyatt and Bob Dylan. His vocal style and guitar playing belie his European home, and the varied accompaniment of drums/bass, pedal steel, Dobro, piano and accordion give this CD a very polished and unique framework for his style.
"It is outstanding music."
"Rootsville" - Belgium:
From Denmark came a CD - "Copenhagen Time. It was ingenious put together by one Rene Evald, who was completely unknown to me, but whom I now will continue to follow with great attention. An absolute must for those who know to appreciate semi-acoustic and acoustic music and who loves unexpected and different arrangements. And an obligation for lovers of slide guitar, Dobro, lap or pedal steel.
"Roots Zone" - Denmark :
As a reviewer you sometimes get a pleasant surprise and
that´s what I got, when I listened to the new album "Copenhagen Time" from René Evald. Pleasant because this is a surprisingly good cd. He really comes through with this new cd, that shows his format as a singer and guitarplayer. His voice is good and has character, but especially as a guitarplayer he exels with his airy and bouncy playing.

"Real Blues Magazine" - Canada:
"I did recognize that it was much better than the typical CDs we get as Rene obviously has exceptional talents. It's a WONDERFUL collection of songs. "Copenhagen Time" appears as nr. 46 on Real Blues Magazines Top 100 list of best blues releases in 2008: All (theese albums) have been graded as ‘Highly Recommended Purchases’ and all selections are based solely on Artistic/Spiritual Merit."
