Reviews

"Cory and Sarah have the sweetest voices in all of roots music while Cory's songwriting stands alongside the best. Those attributes as well as Sarah's delicious violin flavouring throughout and Cory's rock solid guitar are a joy. The top-notch production and wonderful backup by the band are the icing on the cake. This is an exceptional recording."

Veteran Canadian music journalist Larry LeBlanc

"We can appreciate music of extreme finess played always with extreme gentleness. Everything is musical from a couple in which there is excellence in the warmth and passion that puts their interpretation into 'Jaybird' " (translated from original Italian)

Remo Ricaldone, Lonestar Time Magazine, Italy

"Cory Danyluk and Sarah Card are a duo that define all the best attributes of a true musical and creative partnership and one that continues to nurture a sound that is as refreshing and organic, as it is their own."

Peter North, CKUA Radio, Edmonton Canada

"Acoustic music of the very tasty and detailed kind. Yes indeed, there are still serious musicians who know their job, and this Duo has such musical artisans."

Andrea Stolle, Radio Teutoburger, Germany

"Artists with longer careers could learn about sounding interested in their material from these two."

Les Siemieniuk, Penguin Eggs Magazine, Edmonton, Canada

"Together Danyluk and Card have the ability to capture the feeling of a crisp, melancholy, two-beer Albertan summer night."

Tash Fryzuk, SEE Magazine, Edmonton, Canada

"A sound that is unique, identifiable and thankfully, darn good. (Danyluk's) lyrics are filled with magnified images and penetrating emotions, are so impressively poetic and powerful that they could easily stand alone as spoken-word pieces."

Peter North, Edmonton Journal, Edmonton Canada

"Beautiful vocals, great guitar picking, strong lyrics. No weak moments at all, all the songs are well worth to be heard and played!! Great expressive harmony vocals."

Ray Pieters, Radio Milo, Belgium

"Sarah Jane Card's graceful Fiddle serves as an elegant backdrop to Cory Danyluk's wonderful and rich voice."

Carol Harrison, EXCLAIM! Magazine, Toronto Canada

Biography

After spending 2009 touring relentlessly, delighting audiences in countless theatres, coffee houses, pubs, folk clubs and festivals from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland and around Western Europe and the UK, Danyluk & Card took a small hiatus to woodshed material for their next album, and enjoy the birth of their new baby boy.

They have several exiting new projects in the works. More information will be available in the near future.

The songs of Cory Danyluk have a rare intuitive beauty that is at once brimming with poetic images and evocative of the truest raw human emotions. Drawing from an array of influences ranging from the Rolling Stones to Woody Guthrie, Guy Clark, Van Morrison and the Black Crows and far beyond, his music has long been difficult for his fans to pigeon-hole. His unique fiery singing style and powerful blues harp have over the years become a signature trademark which, now combined with the lilting and often haunting fiddle style and sweet vocal harmonies of partner Sarah Card, has blossomed into a musical sound entirely its own that has been described as acoustic folk-rock.

Danyluk & Card have been making music that is getting recognition on both sides of the Atlantic, including airplay in the United States, Germany, Italy and Belgium. With their captivating live performances, the duo are winning over more and more audiences at festivals and folk clubs in Canada, Europe and the U.K. They now have three CDs under their collective belt, including their most recent release, "Too Much To Dream", which is receiving glowing reviews both at home and overseas.

Two of their songs have been chosen for the Acoustic Rainbow sampler which is distributed to over fifteen hundred rootsy radio stations around the world. Perhaps Radio Teutoburger in Germany most aptly sums up this duo: “Yes indeed there are still serious musicians who know their job, and this duo has such musical artisans.”
