"Undenyably undefinable!! DiBello's explosive & intricate guitar work takes this from a simple Alt Country experience to a musical joyride of Rock God caliber!"
- Christine Volk PlayErie.com - PlayErie.com
"A lively DUO that proves that artistically 'less is more', a contemporary weaving of punk, rock, and cowboy rhythm and blues. They stage a performance that entertains as well satisfies one's musical hunger. CC & W are Bad to the bone, baby"
- The Fran Schanz - Schanz
"Tracy & Hepburn, Burns & Allen, Astaire & Rodgers - great couples of the entertainment world. Erie's answer? DiBello & Bodine. Between them, the two cover all of the performing arts, from dance to theatre and music, both vocal and instrumental. DiBello & Bodine continue to stretch the limits of performance with their abstractions in music and movement."
