    “Jez has the type of voice that impels you to listen. Ridiculously enjoyable... An unequivocal thumbs up.”

    — Folk Radio UK

    “It's heartening to hear such thoughtful yet deeply felt songs, given the times we live in now. To hear them so well sung, so adroitly arranged and brilliantly performed is a joy.”

    — Songlines

    “Simply superb... I cannot praise this album highly enough. Wonderfully packaged, with stunningly interpreted and performed songs full of depth, texture and passion that reveal themselves even more with repeated plays.”

    — Fatea Magazine

    “The performance on the Main Stage at this years Wessex Folk Festival of Jez Hellard and the Djukella Orchestra was one of the highlights of the festival. Quite simply the band were excellent. Distinctive and innovative alternative folk produced at full throttle by a tight unit who know how to play their instruments and work an audience. If you get the chance go see the band as it is well worth it.” - Bob Ford

    — Wessex Folk Festival

    “If Heavy Wood doesn't place Jez Hellard & The Djukella Orchestra among the leaders of contemporary folk then whoever in this world is responsible for seeing that justice is done, clearly isn't on the case.”

    — FolkWords

    “Unyielding and dynamic... as robust as time and as sturdy as Heavy Wood. It flows without pressure, it guides without malice and in the end produces such a selection of songs that the listener can only ever be enthralled. ”

    — Liverpool Sound and Vision

    “Jez Hellard epitomises the hardcore troubadour.”

    — R2 Magazine

    “Jez Hellard demonstrated that playing harmonica is a full on body experience...With fans across 3 continents, It was easy to see and hear what all the hullaballoo was about.”

    — Earshot Magazine, Canada

    “Beautifully crafted and stunningly delivered... a staggering jigsaw of musical invention and a sonorous voice that drags you into every song.”

    — Folking.com

    “Having never heard of Mr Hellard, this came as a delightful surprise. Immersing myself in this album for a day or two, I find myself baffled as to how I have avoided him. The loss is all mine, because this is a seriously good CD.”

    — Living Tradition

    “Hellard is a traveller of the world, having played over a thousand gigs in the last decade, many in unlikely places and countries, and he's absorbed all those influences into his music to create something genuinely unique.”

    — R2 Magazine
