“Omaha has given us the reigning heir to Henry Miller´s dark emotional mirror, Townes Van Zandt´s three-chord moan, and Lou Reed´s warehouse minimalism: his name is Simon Joyner.“ — Gillian Welch
“Pound for pound Simon Joyner is my favorite lyricist of all time. He has shades of all the greats (Van Zandt, Cohen, Dylan) but exists in a space all his own ... He truly is an American songwriting treasure. It is my hope that more people will discover his music and share in the unique joy that it brings.“ — Conor Oberst
“Little bits of several folks that I like in what Simon does, but he ends up being his own man, no question.“ — John Peel
