A classically-trained violinist with a penchant for old-time fiddle, Powerhouse Revival member Griff Bear's impossibly fleet fingered and precision playing never fails to elicit hoots and hollers from the audience while he and Vance play fast and furious, spinning up the energy of the crowd until someone shouts, "play some Hendrix!" And Vance's slide guitar wails a Voodoo Chile to impress even the staunchest Hendrix fan. The Bozeman Daily Chronicle

"Drop by Biddy McGraw’s nearly any Tuesday and you’ll get an earful of mournful, forceful blues from these Portland pros. [T]heir extended residency has served them well. Vance’s sandpaper vocals have gained an ever-rougher grain. The pace is faster. His guitar steams while Bear’s frenzied fiddle practically gooses listeners. If this duo’s sound gets any bigger or wilder, it’s liable to overtake the whole damn bar itself." Willamette Week, January 2005
