" Gentry Bronson teases newbies with his latest effort, a four-track CD that captures the Bay Area musician's various moods and creative styles. This is authentic singer/songwriter craftsmanship and not the bogus cookie-cutter acoustic pop of Jack Johnson and his clones.  For an EP, Bronson has produced an album's worth of emotional power, and the music continues to linger hours later. "

" Bronson has the rare gift for melody and to write sophisticated musical arrangements. He has written fascinating story songs that show why he's won three Northern California Songwriters Association awards. "
– Paul Liberatore, Here Magazine

"Avond is a slow burning song filled with hope and finding the strength to keep believing in love. The song begins calmly, with Gentry's endearing vocals complimenting the acoustic guitar and piano wonderfully. Fans of Robbie Williams and Kings of Convenience would surely approve of Gentry's tender but evocative pipes. "
- Justin Rice, Bryan Farrish Radio

" First of all I was happily surprised to hear that someone wanted to sing 'Avond' in English. And when I heard Gentry's version I was impressed. His beautiful voice matches very well with the song, both colourwise and soundwise. It is modestly sung, simple, without exaggerated emotions. So, no melodrama. It works well in English. Maybe he would like to translate and sing more songs. "

" Gentry Bronson can see the future of the music business, one in which he hits it big without selling his soul to a big recording company. "
– Dan Fost, San Francisco Chronicle

" San Francisco’s Gentry Bronson is bringing the piano back to the focal point of pop music, paying homage but really amping up the style made famous by artists like Elton John, Billy Joel, Tori Amos and Ben Folds. Using all 88 keys, he explores a wide spectrum from sentient ballads to big, bold rock tunes. "

" Like Wilco’s Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, Bronson lays it on the line with every word he utters while seated in front of his piano, his fingers rolling deliberately across the keyboard as he sings. "
- Gregory J. Pleshaw, Journalist and author of The Collapse Of Time

" From the heights of the independent music scene comes someone to get excited about: Gentry Bronson! Like a modern-day Billy Joel with a flair for the alternative, Gentry's music is refreshingly vibrant and exciting every step of the way. "
- Sheila Kirsten Hughes, Nubzilla.com

" Dave Hoover teams up with pianist Gentry Bronson for a set of leisurely, generous, and altogether wonderful duets.  This is sublime stuff, and quintessentially New Mexican. "
- Robert Sundes, The Metaphysical Music Man

" Santa Fe Sky, an instrumental record that features Gentry Bronson on keys and Dave Hoover on a great pile of instruments, might be easy to dismiss as another "New Age" record, but the soulfulness of the performances points to a music that is just as easily informed by punk rock, jazz, and Americana musics that suggest no simple comparison. "

" Gentry Bronson is a gem, an exceptional talent to entertain and represent Bread & Roses.  I wish I had the correct words to tell you of his talent and his dramatic skills as he sings and plays the keyboard and captivates his audience."
- Lucia Whitney, Bread & Roses

" Gentry's music covers the waterfront of beautiful losers and missed connections. His work is more generally accessible, though it weaves in and out of traditional singer-songwriting, jazz and blues. "
