With Tryin’ To Get By, Oliver Mally surpasses himself as a songwriter, who, with the help of his band and special guests Siegal, Wressnig and Hofherr, has found the definitive versions of his songs. Tryin’ To Get By is a top-class record. BLUESTOWN - (NL)

"We are in front of a true musician, an artist of the naked song and interpretative originality, a commited composer and a man without adornment, a worker of music without palliative. Just listen and you will find the greatness of his personality.“ BLUES21 (ES)

„there are blues singers, there are good blues singers, and then there is Ian Siegal, who I would put in a class of his own” - BLUES in BRITAIN


"My Man! We're from the same school!” - Ronnie Wood

„Ian Siegal is without doubt THE most talented musician/songwriter to emerge on the British blues scene in recent years. Ian doesn't just perform the blues, he is totally possessed by them. He doesn't just play the guitar, he talks to it... and it talks back! If Ian had been around in the 60's, then there is no doubt that today he would be a made man, talked of in the same breath as Eric Clapton, John Mayall, Page and Plant, Van Morrison et al.” - BLUES4EVER
