"From Glasgow, this beautiful music arrived in
June 2005. A solo artist singing and playing acoustic guitar -
sometimes effected, his songs slip between a beautifully sparse,
emotive fragility (recalling Nick Drake, Bert Jansch, etc.) and
denser instrumentals (recalling Eno or Labradford). Very cool
stuff." Fatcat Records.
"Where Dickson excels is with his unique use of the guitar as a
sound making body. A glorious object in which to explore rich
landscapes, the drone in song, and acoustic ambience. This is
beautiful music, music in the act of levitation, a ghostly presence;
almost tangible but never within reach." Polymorphic Music
"The Gareth Dickson CD is beautiful celtic inflected folk guitar
which at times reminds me of a less slide guitary Paris Texas
soundtrack (Ry Cooder). It's absolutely beautiful regardless of what
I think it sounds like." Norman Records
"Introspective, tender, experimental and blissful.... manages to
satisfy both the fans of folk and of experimental music. An awesome
record! (Polymorphic Sampler)." Phlow Magazine. To hear it free go
