"It is very rare to find such a beautiful and intimate
dialogue between an artist and his instrument. We are proud
to have Robert as an ambassador of our music to the rest of
the world - he is a true Bossanovista."
-A Toca do Vinicius, Rio De Janeiro

"Everest
has one of those delicately soothing voices, like Michael Franks
or Paul Simon. And his gentle Latin American folk-pop tunes are
imbued with a subtle complexity reminiscent of Gilberto Gil or
Milton Nascimento."
- City Pages, Minneapolis
"Locally acclaimed, globally appreciated guitarist/singer/songwriter
Robert Everest knows no boundaries when it comes to music, which
is readily reflected on his aptly titled new release, the Robert
Everest Expedition. With tracks that span ten years of composition
and three continents of exploration, the CD features Everest on
guitar and lead vocals, Marco Sambrotta (piano and vocals), Tony
Axtell and Jocko MacNelly (bass), Michael Bissonnette and Chico
Chávez (percussion), Andy Artz (drums), and Gary Schulte
(violin). Everest has compiled the diversity of American culture
as surely as he has integrated the traditions of Latin America
and southern Europe."
