"I have watched Robin Banks grow as a vocalist, songwriter and performer for many years now. In that time I've seen her master many genres as a vocalist along the way absorbing the essence of each style and making it her own. Whether it be blues, jazz, soul or R&B, Robin's taste and vocal power make her a rare talent. Her songwriting skills show her depth and musical intelligence and the songs on her new CD "Modern Classic" bring together all her talents in a way that shows her as a major force in roots music." Duke Robillard

"I have never worked with a vocalist who had as much command of musical language and nuance as Robin. It was simply a blast, and the results speak for themselves. I'm proud to have been involved with this recording and I highly recommend that you get your copy straight away! "Crazy" indeed! Recording Modern Classic with my friend Robin Banks was too much fun! Kudos to Mark Earley, Doug James and Doug Woolverton for the exceptional horn work, my fellow Duke Robillard Band members and of course our stalwart and most excellent sound engineer Jack Gauthier / Lakewest Recording Studios! ...Robin is a hidden gem from Toronto who deserves much wider recognition!"
