"House of the Rising Sun" Demo Facebook Page"

"Because of the saturation of attempts at novel arrangements and performances surrounding this well worn song and music it is a very difficult piece to creatively attack and re-create uniquely. Brave, and nicely done. I enjoyed it... Oh, and it certainly helps to have a solid vocal talent involved :-)" - J Brain Hennessy
