PRESS QUOTES:

“The buoyant, life-affirming, sweetly acoustic music of Israeli-born Mendilow incorporates influences from across the Middle East, Africa, South America and beyond. It's a folk music of hope and affirmation, sophisticated in its delivery but easily accessible to listeners anywhere. ”
— Chicago Tribune

“One of the most ear-opening albums of the year. During the 1960s, Kaleidoscope featuring David Lindley stretched the boundaries of world music within a rock band about as far as they could be stretched, walking away with a reputation as heroes for sonic adventurers. The Guy Mendilow Band may not be quite as rambunctious, but they are no less daring. ”
The Boomer's Guide to Music & News

“This isn’t for quirky ears, it’s for jaded ears that need to be shaken awake with
something substantially different that keeps the interest on the beam throughout.
Delightfully different, even when it seems like it might be familiar. ” —Midwest Record

“The Guy Mendilow Band embodies world music at its best. You needn’t speak Hebrew, Portuguese or Ladino to understand Mendilow’s music. It flows through expressive vocals and instruments exotic and familiar.... ”
The Ceder Rapids Gazette

“This is, to folk, what Bela Fleck is to Foggy Mountain Breakdown. This is unusual and exciting.”
— Philadelphia Folk Song Society

“The glory of what [Mendilow] does is finding a common ground among different cultures.
And that’s what makes his music so exciting.”
—Jewish Advocate

“...a fresh, different sound...expertly crafted, arranged and recorded. ”
— Charleston Gazette

“Auditory magic...Mendilow blends musical styles and flavors with an artistic flair and distinctive sense of melody...Mendilow's music, like his philosophies, know no international boundaries…
Mendilow knits them all together like a master craftsman.”
— Wildy's World

“One of Boston's most original world-music acts.”
— Boston Herald


“Guy Mendilow is quickly developing a reputation as a masterful, deeply passionate and sincere performer.”
— Global Rhythm Magazine
“They were mesmerizing…Their musicianship, versatility, and originality was most impressive.
Our audience left raving about their talent and the sound of their music.”
— Rich Warren, nationally syndicated broadcast, The Midnight Special/Folkstage, WFMT Chicago

“…an emerging master of overtone singing … as compelling as [he] is diverse…
the audience is hearing him loud and clear.”— Metrowest Daily News


“…Vibrant musical storytelling awash with warm harmonies, captivating rhythms
and rollicking, fast-paced vocal improvisations.”
— Cambridge Chronicle


“Gorgeous, enchanting sound and technically rich music wrapped up in a fun, playful atmosphere.The Guy Mendilow Band in concert is a night of pure musical magic.”
—Bay Windows

“Mendilow's globe-trotting career began at age 10 when he joined the American Boychoir. At 15, he set off on a solo career that has taken him to five countries. He speaks and sings in English, Hebrew, Spanish, and Portuguese. As a composer and arranger, he draws on Israeli, Hindustani, South African, jazz, blues, and folk influences.”
Boston Globe
