“,,now resident in Montreal, Canada, Denny Snyder plays, writes and teaches guitar and this example of his music is damn fine. this is a completely convincing and often emotionally draining album,with its clever and wry lyrics. All act to demonstrate the artistry of a man who lives for his music,, ”

Andy Snipper, Blues Matters Magazine Issue 52
“It's great to hear Denny's music is doing so well! The pleasure of having years of experience is the 'rush' that I get when I hear something, after only a few seconds, that I know, in my gut, is good stuff. His music has done that from the beginiing, so having it on my radio show is a real pleasure.”

“Full Circle is a fabulous collection of styles and guitar playing. Great blues tracks like Perfectionist Blues alongside the moody slide of Lac Echo or the wonderful fingerpicking of Nothin Doin and City Slicker. I shall look forward to playing some of this on future shows.”

Ashwyn Smyth, Digital Blues Gateway, United Kingdom
“Denny Snyder's "Full Circle" is very good stuff indeed. Denny is a superb and powerful musician (the slide playing is fantastic) and has a very original style indeed.”

Massimo Ferro , Radio Voce Spazio, Italy
“Denny is like taking a look at the blues of yesteryear, but with a modern punch. He is at home with an acoustic for some poignant Blues as he does with an electric belting out great Chicago tunes. His writing is refreshingly modern, yet still gives the air of reminiscence.”

“South Bend native Denny Snyder is a blues guitar sensation now based in Montreal. He packs a wallop!”

Elkhart Jazz Festival
“I've constantly been amazed at his dazzling playing, he sounds like a one-man band. He knows how to self-accompany in a way that fills in all the holes. It's like multitasking bass, chords, lead and vocal, but it's just Denny and his acoustic guitar. His blues bands rock with precision, too."”

Bruce Bartlett, Recording Engineer, Bartlett Recording Studio
“,,, I asked the sound man who he was playing and that I really liked it a lot! I came home and immediatly bought the last copy Amazon had. Denny's playing and guitar tone are awesome, as well as his vocals. There is not a bad song on this disc. Check out southsidedenny.com You will be glad you did!”

"Luther Allison said, "Give me a pick." Snyder handed it over, playing with his left hand, while Allison played it with his right.
After Snyder asked, "How did you know what I was going to do with my left hand?"
"How did you know what I was going to do with my right hand?" Allison replied.

“…although he shares in common with other Indiana blues artists a Chicago-based sound, his is not of the usual generic 1950’s…shows far more identity to the sophisticated urbanity of Buddy Guy than to SRV- a most refreshing approach…He gets down, that’s all there is to it.”

George Fish, Nuvo magazine, Indianapolis
“To be bold enough to show up at a festival with only an acoustic guitar would command confidence, audacity and a good dose of cold blood, three qualities that he evidently has an abundance of…a repertoire of original compositions, seemingly inexhaustible of variety… ”

“The very jazzy “Paging Dr. Cory” proves how versatile this guitarist really is, as he takes melodic runs up and down the fretboard with confidence and ease. ”

Nick Washburn, West Michigan Blues Society
“The 400 people who were present saw a Southside Denny at the top of his game in the form of a more than worthy acoustic set of devil’s music. This master of his instrument could only have come come from passion, love and a long road paved with influences from here and there…”
