"Rich music mined from the depths of Americana. Feldmann’s probing lyrics and yearning growl will echo in your soul and lift you up."
- Ben Kieffer, Iowa Public Radio
Tin Roof Sky CD Review, 2008 - Iowa Public Radio, NPR
“The Get-Rites are masters of the no-excuses, no-holds-barred, folk-blues-roots Americana music. A Best of 2007 pick”
- Dirty Linen Magazine, Colleen Moore
Side Show Revival CD Review, 2008 - Dirty Linen Magazine
"Feldmann deserves all the publicity he can get: He's the real deal, a soulful original who uses country blues to get at his own personal demons, which lie somewhere between Gram Parsons' beautiful death angels and Uncle Tupelo's lurching workingman's blues."
- Blues Revue Magazine, Robert Fontenot
Side Show Revival CD Review, 2007 - Blues Revue Magazine
"An unashamed religious glory-fest that is fuelled by the ultimate goal of salvation, redemption, and a place at ‘The Mans’ head table. A deep, soulful vocal range with a Son House-esque ‘deathly’ wail to boot, Feldmann is both authentic and retrospective at the same time and is both questioning and thought provoking in his songwriting. The band helps create that thirties back-water groove and the whole thing, judged on the music, gets a thumbs up."

Bio
Imagine the Wild West wooden cabin on wheels, tin pot stovepipe poking through the roof, has just clanked into town hauled by a pair of dog-tired mules. The quack-cure caravan, preacher, sideshow musicians and dancing girls taking up the rear, has arrived to provide temporary distraction, merriment and promised remedies for every ailment under the sun. When the dust settles, Minneapolis, Minnesota’s travelin’ light trio, The Get-Rites emerge on a makeshift stage, snare drum and cymbal, guitar and double bass in hands. There are lost souls to be saved and there’s no rest for any until their work’s been done.
