"I saw Lightnin' Guy as a young hungry musician absorbing the best of the great blues musicians during their live shows. Now a decade later he keeps the torch of authenticity burning within the Belgian blues scene."
Franky Bruneel www.backtotheroots.be

"This band is solid as a rock and very powerful. Leaving space for solo's and exploring different styles. Lightnin' Guy has developed a solid slide guitar style which is rich in variation.”
Bert Lek www.bobtjeblues.com

"Absolute top in Belgium! The slide guitar & harp of Lightnin' Guy are a perfect & wonderful combination. The Rhythm section is simply awesome. Standing in the shadow, they are the perfect backbone for this band. ... Vollen bak dees gasten, in het oog te houden.”
Witte MVS www.rootsville.be

"Their shows are simply impressive. The music is rich in variation and is played with great craftmanship. With his intense stage appearance Lightnin' Guy takes the audience on an amazing blues trip. You can't stand still during a concert of this band.”
Colin Ash www.keysandchords.com

"The charismatic singer plays the slide guitar and the blues harp. Together with his band they pass through blues and funk. His intensive performance & repertoire that lifts the public out of their seats and makes them swing!"
Gerrit Harmsen www.bluesmagazine.nl

"Tout simplement le meilleur "blues band belge" live du début de ce siècle! Avec des voix puissantes, des guitares cinglantes et un jeu d'harmonica qui atteint toujours de nouveaux sommets, Lightnin' Guy vous emmène en voyage de la Nouvelle-Orléans à Chicago. Une présence scénique corrosive , un répertoire bien balancé , du savoir-faire, un look rock'n roll , le blues band belge à suivre...”
Michel Preumont www.musicinbelgium.net

"Le groupe Lightnin'Guy est de loin la plus grosse révélation du 30ème festival de Gouvy. Des gars sympas qui distillent une musique très travaillée et d'un dynamisme rare. Ce groupe est certainement une des valeurs sûres du blues belge et le public de connaisseurs ne s'y est pas trompé. Les amateurs de bonne musique pourront dire: "J'y étais!" Je me souviendrai longtemps de cette prestation magnifique... c'est le plat de résistance pour oreilles besogneuses!!!“
Claude Lentz, Gouvy Jazz & Blues Festival
