Blues Rules Crissier Festival is the Deep & Dirty Blues festival in Switzerland.
This small, human sized, event happens each year close to Lausanne, where for once the Mississippi river joins the Leman Lake, with artists from the USA, Switzerland and everywhere else.

"One of America's best - and most underrated - songwriters."
--PopMatters

"A voice to turn good girls bad...Maybe crazy but damn exciting."
--The Village Voice

"Put simply, the Reid Paley Trio knows how to get down. He's got mischief in his eye, Elvis in his joints, and booze everywhere else."
--NYRock

"What? You want some kind of description of the artist and his music? Just fucking listen to the guy and enjoy his prowess."
-- Frank Black a.k.a. Black Francis

"One of the East Coast's best-kept secrets...You need to see him."
--What's On In London

"A proudly weird talent with a nervy raw appeal."
--Time Out New York

"Straightforward, sarcastic, funny and gifted at putting a song together."
--New York Press

“So many critics wax on about how Reid Paley is an underrated, undiscovered talent -- but it's actually true. He's an immensely talented singer-guitarist-songwriter...This is the "real thing", but it doesn't comfortably fit in any category to reach the masses.”
--Cheap Thrills Boston

“The bastard child of Sinatra and Lemmy.”
--Random Magazine UK

“Possessed with the voice of a drunken wolf…Songs that roar."
--Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

"Best Actual Gig of the Year. Very very impressive."
--Sleazegrinder UK

"Reduce-you-to-tears razor wit...Reid Paley ought to be a household name."
--Pittsburgh City Paper

"As Baudelaire was the spleen of Paris, Reid Paley is the spleen of New York... How else could he write such messianic blues, such prophetic rock 'n' roll?"
--442éme Rue, Paris

“A jazz-blues-rockabilly sound so distinctive that it takes a while for your listening organs to balance the gruff, hoarse voice with the excellent playing. A dark wit that will have you spitting your dinner over the stereo in mirth.”
--SoundsXP UK

"More messy jazz from a drunken genius."
--City Life, Manchester UK

"Everyone has a favorite drinking album. Right now, mine is REVIVAL... For all his simplicity, Reid is like nobody else."
--Seattle Weekly

"A soot-black sense of humor as biting as an underfed Rottweiler."
--Cleveland Free Times

"For fans of churlish honesty and unaffected one-man shows, REVIVAL is a nonstop riot."
--San Francisco Weekly

"An unholy howl of a voice."
--CMJ

"A great musical attraction...a sort of Sinatra for the disaffected."
--Mississippi Reflector

"Reid Paley is the kind of artist Seattle loves."
--The Stranger

Red started out in Orlando's infamous Studdogs. They blew up shortly after signing to Orange Recordings and Red moved home to Muscle Shoals, Al. Since then Red has released four records, toured the States and Europe, had two hit videos in Estonia with his friend Andres Roots and is still going! This writer of song, story and poem is indescribable! Gospel, field hollers, punk, blues, crooners and country inform him but none define him.
