What the papers say...

"I received the sampler copy of your latest CD and I now take the chance to thank you so much for sending it to me: "Satan's Zoo" is a wonderful album in fact, I liked it the first time I listened to it even if I can hear something more each time I put in on. This is probably one of the best products released by an English singer-sonwriter recently, it has a great variety of arrangement but above all there are so many beautiful and catchy songs that it was a very hard choice to decide the ones to be played in my radio show here. "Wild Dreams", "Dr. Faustus Blues" and "Shadows In The Night" could be my favourite ones, and in fact they were the songs I already played in my radio show here, as you can see from some recent playlists here enclosed, but I suppose something else will find its way on the air in the next weeks!"

Tony's vocal and piano duo concert in Kelvedon January 2004

Edinburgh Fringe Review

Is there room for another John Hegley? If he's a Jonny Ball-like figure called Tony Winn, then the answer's yes. Tony delivers a mixture of folksy songs and performance poetry with daily-life themes, largely naked from his bath. He is assisted by Matt, who sits dressed in a full dinner jacket and white tie on a stool next to the bath, and appears to be Tony's butler. Due to this slightly odd set-up, the result is much more quirky than just any old poetry performance. Quirky yes, but a pleasant experience: the performers are charming and Tony is an accomplished singer and musician. The last song is a moving spiritual/gospel song, and sent me away satisfied with an hour well spent. Go, and expect to smile, sing and tap your toes. http://www.unlimitedmedia.co.uk/3weeks/2002/revcs.html
