Kind words about kind words...

Redwood Reider shared, bared and gave us their all with passion and subtlety beautifully woven into messages powerful and poignant.
— The Nelson Mail
There is something tender about how easily Redwood drew me to tears, and then seconds later had me laughing out loud... Redwood has brought the crowd together, rooting us into one through their words.
— Bad Apple
Redwood has the gift of accessibility – these poems are stories, these poems resonate with me, these poems also contain some kind of realness and bravery that I can hold onto.
— Happyzine
Redwood reaches deeply into our shared humanity and realities — whether it be personal, environmental or political. A high energy performance enthralls. Revisiting through CD, word into ear into heart, brings a smile through tears.
Beautiful, a night to repeat.

“I am so very proud of you and what you do for our deeply beloved Mother Earth... You are a strong, loving but hard-hitting voice for Her and all of Her peoples."
"Feeling expansive and open hearted after that amazing evening with you last night. Feeling so very grateful to you for putting into words what's in my heart – the exquisite beauty and total wonder of the natural world, the heartache of what is happening on the planet, and the feeling that we are all in this together."
"I was smiling the whole time. My heart opened, I felt braver, I glimpsed what could be and what mattered and felt that I too needed to write. I felt inspired and it was powerful. I am grateful."
