Reviews:

" Darren Welch performed in a "take no prisioners fashion" with a commanding and overwhelming guitar performance of force and skill to be reckoned with only by legends like Stevie Ray Vaughn   and Jimi Hendrix."  Steve Ironside, Editor , Amarillo Streets Magazine.

"Jesse's style is very deceiving. When you observe his style it looks effortless, but the sound is amazing.  Such that your brain cannot reconcile what your eyes see and your ears hear. One aspect of Jesse Ballew is his voice.  Powerful and gravely smooth, it enhances most classic sounding blues-rock tunes you  can think of. "  I Got Blues online magazine.

" And I have to include Darren Welch. He can appear all calm but, if he even thinks there's any      sort of competition, he will rip your guts out."   John Sprott, Lubbock Avalanche Journal Interview, Jan. 2006
