Barry Romberg: No Soap Radio

Read "No Soap Radio" reviewed by Jerry D'Souza


One of the first things that is apparent when looking at this CD is that Barry Romberg has a sense of humour, evident not only in the titles of his compositions, but also the text of the liner notes, particularly a question and the relevant answer. The crackerjack band he has includes some of the finest ...

3 Sisters: Village

Read "Village" reviewed by Paul Olson


Two guitars, an electric bassist, and a drummer.

The trio is composed of guitarist Young, bassist Jim Vivian, and Romhog Records factotum Barry Romberg on drums, and on this collection of six Young originals and one standard, they play an utterly beautiful style of acoustic guitar ...

Barry Romberg: Random Access Part 3

Read "Random Access Part 3" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


It's hard to ignore a set that includes a musical dedication to the late Long Beach, California poet laureate, Charles Bukowski. The closer on Toronto-based drummer Barry Romberg's Random Access Part 3 does so with “The Long Haul," referencing, perhaps, Bukowski's long slog to a belated success as an author of distinctively gritty prose and poetry.

MRC Trio: That Magic Thread

Read "That Magic Thread" reviewed by Paul Olson


The hardest-working musician in Canada just might be drummer Barry Romberg, who, in addition to various sideman gigs, plays in the Barry Romberg Group, the Three Sisters, Inside Out, and the MRC Trio--and distributes recordings by these ensembles on his own Romhog Records. The MRC Trio, a collaborative group with violinist Hugh Marsh and five-string cellist ...
