“Jerry Leger is one of the best songwriters I’ve heard in quite some time.” - Ron Sexsmith

“Love the record” - John Southworth

“Passionate Toronto poet.”- Now Magazine, Toronto, Canada

“Farewell Ghost Town”(’06-’07) reviews:

"Jerry Leger is one of Canada's finest new singing storytellers...Get a copy of Farewell Ghost Town and leave it on repeat for a few hours. You'll be hooked."

-David Reed, The Intelligencer, Belleville, Canada

"The songs are tuneful, accessible and direct.. Bar-room blues, lonesome ballads and barn-rockin' stompers all coexist in an album that's charming not only for its strong songwriting, but also in its unassuming approach."- Pras Rajagopalan, Chart Magazine/Chart Attack, Toronto, Canada

"There's something about Leger that makes it all seem effortless.....With lots of good acts coming out of North America nowadays, here's another to add to the collection."- Russell Barker, UK Press, United Kingdom

"He's managed to revive the appealing elements of Bob Dylan and Elvis Costello that were surely disappearing....Leger delivers folk rock in an old fashioned, albeit not dated style."- Andrew Seale, Spill Magazine, Toronto, Canada

4.5(out of 5) -Francois Braeken, Rootstime, Belgium

“..their sophomore effort pushes Leger into the forefront as one of Toronto’s best emerging songwriters.” - Adam Miller, Being There Magazine, St. Catherine’s, Canada

“Jerry Leger & The Situation”(’05-’06) reviews:

A unique compilation of sound... A spirited and insistent start." - Chart Magazine/Chart Attack, Toronto, Canada

"...snarly, feisty vocals spurted out in what appears to be a stream of consciousness.....pretty top notch...." -Russell Barker, UK Press

"The sound runs the gamut amongst the Brixton dub of Nineteen-Seventies British punk and North American rock, folk, and blues, while maintaining a contemporary feel. His influences draw on classic, predominantly North American sources....the sound is punchy, nostalgic and crowd-moving."-Myope.Net, Toronto, Canada
