"This guy is GOOOOD...he is writing some great stuff!"--Taj Mahal... "Viesselman's songs have a sage, hardened pathos that's hardly pretty-boy stuff. It's not exactly what he says, but how he says it, wherein the genuine power lies. He delivers silvery, potent lines that are killer in substance. No disappointment here, Viesselman has a charmed beauty all his own." -Dirty Linen "Stunning" -NetRhythms.co.uk "Viesselman's blue-eyed country-fried soul resides in that special realm that seems to defy the sands of time… Viesselman provides the perfect example here for young songwriters who are looking for the high road….Outstanding.†-indie-music.com “A real relief after listening to a stack of releases is this Kreg Viesselman… a real storyteller and a pure songwriter. … The man writes great songs, it's pure enjoyment!†- Rootstown, Belgium "Elemental songwriting...it's clear that Viesselman knows how to craft moving acoustic music" - the Westword, Denver, Colorado “Revelatory…In short, Kreg Viesselman is a somewhat gruff voiced singer whose great strength is the ability to craft story songs which combine honest emotions with poetic, yet accessible, language….a damn fine guitarist and harmonica player…†- the Greenman Review, Portland, Maine “Viesselman has the rusty voice of a classic singer/songwriter/straggle hell-bent on raking the dregs with his six string while showering souls with humorous and humane lyrics.†-Boulder Weekly Minnesota native Kreg Viesselman is preparing to release his latest album, 'the Pull' in 2006 on Red Kite Records (www.redkiterecords.co.uk). Tacking away from the previous all-acoustic eponymous cd, 'the Pull' promises to be a new amalgam, bearing some of the marks of the gospel and soul influences hinted at on the composition sampled here, entitled 'Jordan's Shore'. Carrying through, however, is Viesselman's acrid and acute personal and social commentary...overall a much greasier affair. Available now on Cdbaby is the eponymous release.
