What folks are saying...
“The music of Jaeger & Reid provides the pure beauty of sound which has been carved down to its essential center: soaring voices; rich, clean harmonies; elegant music lines; meaningful, heartfelt lyrics and storytelling. This is why we all fell in love with Americana and Folk music in the first place - but somehow we forgot along the way. Come on home - it’s time!”
Christine Staples, Executive Director, Calliope: East Bay Music & Arts
"From the moment they stepped onstage they had the audience in the palms of their hand and held them spellbound for the entire set. The interaction between them and the audience was like an intimate conversation between close friends and it was with great reluctance that they bid one another adieu."
-Rika Ruebsaat, Artistic Director, Princeton Traditional Music Festival (Princeton, BC)
"As contemporary singer-songwriters, Judi Jaeger and Bob Reid are strictly top tier. They know how to work within the folk idiom to craft a song that is personal and introspective without ever being self-indulgent. That skill alone sets them apart from most of the pack, but that is not all they have to offer. For Judi and Bob can take a familiar song, a chestnut if you will, something from Bob Dylan or John Lennon, make it their own, and shine a new light upon it. Let's be honest. Any competent musician can cover an old standard. But it takes a particular combination of insight, intelligence, talent, skill, and courage – yes, courage – to let us see and hear the nuances and intricacies that were always there, but which perhaps we had never previously noticed. Judi and Bob, I am pleased to say, possess that very rare combination."
