Jeff German & The Blankety Blanks

“ "Death Row" nails it as a pedal-to-the-metal rocker a la John Moreland's "Everything the Hard Way", but the acoustic version's forlorn steel guitar makes the song less defiant and more hopeless.”

— Rachel Cholst - No Depression

““12 Fret Nights” finds Jeff in a career sweet spot, showing younger artists where they should be headed by lighting the way.”
“ '12 Packs and 8 Tracks and Black & White TV", is a soundtrack not just for the journey but for the experience of being lost. Of having faith not because miracles abound but because it’s the only thing you have left.”
