"A folky at heart, he has a pop sensibility and ... seasoned voice that's well suited to the Stephen Bishop/Jimmy Buffet-type material he pens." - Reno Gazette Journal

"This is a beautiful down tempo creation of one of the greatest pop/rock artists in mp3.com." (review of Dream #3) - Ernesto Cortazar
"Solitude, reflection...honesty was how American acoustic folk-singer and songwriter Will Diehl made his mark in this album... Known as a prolific writer, Diehl has also penned over a thousand songs that deal with love, relationships, environmental and social issues... influenced by styles and ideas prevalent in latter-day New York City..." - The Star (Malaysia)
"This is beautiful. A simple vocal and guitar number with harmonica lines here and there... reminds me of The Beatles' 'You've Got to Hide Your Love Away.' (review of She Carried A Magic Lantern) - Shawn Rhodes (DJ @ NY's WBAI 99.5 FM)
"He's spent this year touring the country to promote his recently released solo CD 'i am free' - now he's bringing it all back home. Diehl's stripped-down acoustic style is reminiscent of Jim Croce; his lyrics more often than not deal with the ambiguities presented by life and love... One thing's for certain: Will Diehl is the real deal." - Reno News and Review
"With the release of his new solo CD, titled appropriately enough, 'i am free', ... Will Diehl has revitalized his career as a solo performer. The ... guitarist and singer has returned to a stripped down sound featuring raw acoustic elements, earthy voicing and occasional harmonica play, all of which serve as the unobtrusive supporting cast to the lyrical qualities of his songwriting talents." - North Lake Tahoe Bonanza Newspaper |
