Wayne Rostad

Newspaper Excerpts

         
 

 

 

 

 

"He’s the kind of fellow who would be pleasant company on a long drive, a fishing trip, or an afternoon telling lies and downing beer in a tavern. Rostad has a natural spontaneous friendliness."

 - The Montreal Gazette

 

 

 

 

 

"Christmas in the Valley is Rostad’s mellow anthem to a season, a sense of belonging, and a particular place, the Ottawa Valley. It has become, by mysterious osmosis, an underground national hit. Nova Scotians think it’s about the Anapolis Valley. British Columbians know he’s singing about the Okanagan"

- Ottawa Citizen

 

 

 

 

 

"An endearing, talented man who looks to have been carved from the rock of the Canadian Shield and then smoothed a little by the summer winds off Lake Superior. His rapport with his subjects is rich and unaffected, and he seems an unabashed Celtic romantic."

- The Toronto Globe and Mail

 

 

 

 

 

"In most parts of Canada, Wayne Rostad is pegged as either a resonant-voiced country musician, or as the amiable host of a popular weekly CBC television show, On the Road Again. But in the Ottawa Valley and western Quebec, the towering, moustached Rostad has a special status - musical giant. His ballads about people who inhabit the back roads and main streets of the rugged, rolling valley have made him a sellout performer"

- Halifax Chronicle Herald
