What Venues Say

Jay Sutton, booking agent - "It’s not often that I book an act and enjoy the entire night of music!  Usually after just a few songs everything starts to sound the same, but that is not the case with Gimacus Burns.  Because he has such a variety of music, I was able to relax and listen to both sets with interest!  I was not surprised that he was able to get patrons dancing about when others failed miserably to elicit any reaction whatsoever from listeners."

Chanzilla Multi Media - “There is a mystical irreverence to Gimacus Burns lyrical style. Like the Cheshire Cat or Willy Wonka, but with more mayhem than mischief. Especially with his live performances. If chaos breaks out during a Gimacus Burns show, it will be during this song, on the final chorus, when the fans just can't hold back any longer. There is an evil grin driving this song.  Which is why it's one of my favorites.” 

Rod Franklin, radio DJ - "Don't miss the original tunes dished out in a fusion of folk acoustic rock and reggae. Gimacus Burns creates a world of often times humorous lyrics complimented by an exciting groove and funky rhythm. You don't want be the last one to hear about him!"
