What people are saying about Rhubarb Whiskey:
“Imagine Bill Monroe and Sid Vicious having kids together”. - 'Rebel' Rod Ames
“It’s like the Dresden Dolls with Hillbillies” -410media.com
"With harder-edged takes on folk, it's got the auditory sensation of dragged chains through fiddle, railroad spike on accordion, ominous train horns a-coming through the fog, perked up with plucked mandolin. A jug in hand seems almost mandatory at this point." - SF Bay Guardian
“Stories are told with a flourish and a touch of the theatrical using mandolin, guitar, accordion, fiddle and upright bass. Mixing classic American folk songs with a gypsy punk ethic works wonderfully well and chief among the highlights is a unique tale of bears and booze whose lyrics were penned by the infamous award winning horror author Poppy Z. Brite.” - The Mad Mackerel
"...utter heartbreak and beauty all at once... excellent strings on this project include a fiddle that will make you weep into your glass of hooch, the tender mandolin and more..." - Tony Dushane, SFGate
"...a blend of vaudeville, gypsy jazz and Southern-Gothic" - TwangNation.com
"...the excellent alcohol soaked, murder ballad, steam punk band." - Tony Dushane, SFGate
"Atmospheric, literate, romantic drinking songs. What more do you want out of life?" - Geoff Berner
“…sexy, rugged and furiously alive…” - Lulu McCubbin’s Ragshop Cabaret
“Rhubarb Whiskey is the anti-prohibition” - John Flaw, Vagabondage
