    PRAISE FOR THE DISTANT THUNDER 

    "Marc Blatte and Joe Cerisano’s band The Distant Thunder is an Americana, High five-deep dive! Their songs are a panorama of life lessons both serious and off the cuff whose melodies stick with lyrics you can read your history in." -The Elements of Song Craft by Billy Siedman (available on Amazon.com) 
     

    "I just listened to The Distant Thunder, the new project by Marc Blatte and Joe Cerisano, and I’m amazed by how impactful these songs are. The lyrics bore right into you, and Joe’s voice is so soulful and genuine, it’s the perfect vehicle to deliver the message. Real rootsy American music at its most authentic. Congrats, guys; this is great stuff. I especially liked Reasons, Ain’t That What Praying’s for, You Won’t Take Me Down, and Healing Hand. More, please!.." -Jon Cobert, keyboard player John Lennon 
     

    "Keep up the great work, really strong. Put the Gun Down is epic." -Steve Addabbo, producer Sean Colvin, Suzanne Vega 
     

    "I’m blown away with what these two have cooked up." -Dave Fields (Big City Rhythm & Blues magazine) New York Hall of Fame guitarist-songwriter 
     

    "Great songs – melodic, hooky, and with a lot of heart. Joe’s vocals are soulful and evocative, as always." -Robbie Kondor composer/arranger/instrumentalist for Eric Clapton, James Taylor, Carol King 
     

    "Congratulations on what is clearly a milestone. Just listened to the whole thing through. It’s very powerful stuff. The singer is great. The tunes are great. The sound is a unique combination of traditional elements. There are echoes of The Band and John Mellencamp, but those never used pedal steel the way it’s used on this record." -Richard Hunter harp player and author of the world’s best-selling method for jazz and rock harmonica players, Jazz Harp (Oak Publications, NYC) 
     

    "A huge virtual round of applause for The Distant Thunder using their voice at a perfect moment in time here on “Healing Hand” – I’ve got nothing else but love and appreciation for a song executed as well as this is. From concept to performance – they’ve nailed it here…and there’s not a thing about it I’d change." -Sleeping Bag Blogger
