“It is only a matter of time until Ivan Rosenberg becomes universally recognized as one of the more prolific masters of the resonator guitar.”
– Bluegrass Unlimited Magazine
“One of the best instrumental recordings I've heard this year is Ivan Rosenberg's Clawhammer and Dobro. Ivan is a banjo and resonator guitar player who writes simply irresistible tunes in that wide-open, almost-no-man's-land between contemporary bluegrass and old time”
– Donald Nitchie, editor of Banjo Newsletter
“Ivan has mastered the lyrical, mood-sustaining power of the resonator guitar.”
— California Bluegrass Association Newsletter
"In the right hands, the resonator guitar is eminently capable of duplicating a myriad of emotions - from a jubilant, euphoric shout all the way to a primeval, gut-wrenching moan. In the right hands, it becomes an instrument of impassioned feeling, dark mystery and great beauty. Ivan Rosenberg has those right hands.
— Dave Higgs, Nashville Public Radio
“Ivan Rosenberg plays his original tunes with stirring soul and emotion... While some of his tunes evoke vivacious spirit into your dancin’ shoes, Ivan seems particularly adept at mood creation.”
— Joe Ross, staff writer, Bluegrass Now
“Once again, Ivan Rosenberg has created a musical delight with Clawhammer and Dobro, a welcomed variation from the ordinary.”
– Bluegrass Unlimited Magazine
