Album Notes

A UNIQUE MIX OF ACOUSTIC GUITAR, RICH VOCALS AND HARMONICA WIZARDRY
Kirby is a rarity, the Real Deal in a world of pretense.
-Parick Niemisto of Third Coast Band

In total, "Better Days" stands as strong as a lighthouse in a Lake Michigan gale... its insights provide a beacon on the world from one of Northern Michigan's top folk artists.
Robert Downes - Northern Express

Blissfest, Mackinac Island, the Ark, Legs Inn, The Noggin Room, Spirit of the Woods Fest, N. MI Songwriters in the Round, Crooked Tree Arts Center, local concerts in the park.

REVIEWS

I absolutely LOVE this CD! I've been waiting for it for a long time.
author: Ann Schmoldt
I have actually talked to Kirby about coming out with a CD that would encompass all of his music to replace the tapes I had. I've been a fan for years, and this CD is just perfect. If you like mellow music, like James Taylor or Jimmy Buffett (his older stuff), then you'll like this CD too. Kirby is very talented, and his songs bring up all types of wonderful images and put you in a good mood. Definitely worth giving it a try. Thanks!
