"Alright let me get one thing straight: I am a ridiculously avid music fan who pretty much likes whatever you throw in front of me, and who rates nearly all music the same--good, nothing stellar, just good. But when I heard "Dream Big" on the local country radio station, it was like an empty part of my soul that most music cannot come close to was filled, and then some. Ryan Shupe and his incredibly talented bandmates have a unique and uncommon chemistry that makes everything about them and their music a joy to experience. And speaking of joy, it's pretty much everywhere when you see them live as I very recently have. The guys have such an addictive and infectious charm, sense of humor, and general love and appreciation for life and good music that leave you wanting so badly to spend a Sunday afternoon jamming, joking, and hanging around with them. All these qualities can be seen, or rather, heard in the band's new release, Dream Big, from which they played many songs live at the concert I was at. If you can't tell by now, I completely adore the guys and their music. It's a much needed breath of fresh air, almost as if Ryan knew and prescribed it himself--I know it sounds weird, but Ryan Shupe songs really make you feel better, especially "Dream Big". If you get a chance to see the guys live, DO NOT PASS IT UP for the LIFE of you, because it's a musical experience you seriously won't forget!! (If you absolutely have to miss, go and buy their Live cd!) I wholeheartedly look forward to how much success the future brings for the amazingly talented and incredibly genial group, and to being first in line when their new cd comes out!!!"

"I can't say enough how fun and talented these guys are. Their music is fun, upbeat, has good values, and a wonderful fusion of blue-grass and pop and just their own style. Each guy can play more than one instrument, their vocal harmonies are tight and wonderful, their style is so unique. Each song is well-written and performed. If you've ever been to a concert, you can't help but be awed by their talent and how well these guys work together to make music....and how much fun THEY have when they play! I'm very excited that it looks like they have finally broken into the Nashville scene...I've seen the Dream Big video on CMT or GAC and can't wait to see if and when a whole album comes about (not that they don't sell their own-produced albums already at concerts and their website www.shupe.net). Give them a try...you won't forget the experience...and spread the word! The Rubberband deserves it! Dream Big is a great first single for them. It's entirely their own. The message is very positive, with hope, having faith in yourself and what you believe in, and telling everyone that you need to keep trying, no matter what life deals you."
