Veronica Sbergia & Max De Bernardi :
“This was great entertainment and music that put a smile on your face. The audience flocked around the stage enthusiastically lapping up the ‘old style blues’ pouring from it” – Digital Blues
“When it comes to knowing about Americana these two are right up there! Country blues, ragtime, vaudeville and even a little old time C&W. Max is a very accomplished guitarist and a strong vocalist, whilst Veronica plays a mean washboard, ukulele and possesses a strong vocal styling. Very uplifting music! So if you get the chance to see this duo in concert, take it!”- Mike Vernon
“Good time Blues is alive and well and residing in…Milan!” – Dave Peabody for Roots Magazine
