The Bombadils: Press

  "The  Bombadils from Montréal, Québec captured my attention with their energetic playing, catchy melodies and interesting combination of styles. From classical, jazz, bluegrass and celtic; the mix will keep listeners engaged until the last track is played."

-The Celtic Music Fan blog, Baxter Labatos

"Sarah Frank’s vocals are beautiful! And her violin playing is always jaw dropping."

“A great live band...as well as a professional studio group”

-The Mirror, Kit Soden in interview with Rupert Bottenberg

"After D'Angelo, The Bombadils, a celtic-jazz fusion band, performed seven Irish folk numbers. Vocalist and violinist Sarah Frank led the group with her energetic and melodic voice. In addition, flautist Anh Phung incorporated her jazz background into the celtic folk songs, lending the songs an interesting and virtuosic layer. The men loved it: they clapped uproariously." "After the concert, I approached one of the men who sat in front of me. His name was Carl Pelton, and he was a resident at the Drop-In Centre. Pelton had attended most of the CMWB noon-hour recitals: he'd liked the variety this time. 'I liked the Celtic band the best today; they were great,' Pelton said as he walked towards the east-side exit back to the unforgiving Montreal winter, and another afternoon on the streets."

-Thomas Quail, The McGill Tribune

"This is a great band that should be seen. Had them [perform] last November and they will be back."
