Bohemian Nights Reviews

“Accordion Fiddle Fire” – Fairbridge Festival, Western Australia

“Loads of enthusiasm, brilliant musicality!” – Wellington Folk Festival, NZ

“The sensitive and affecting musical accompaniment by Ernie Gruner and Phillip Carroll was exemplary… one of the best productions I saw…..” - Bagryana Popov

“Imagine 1930s Paris Café” Wyreena Arts Café

“One of the highlights at the 2010 National for me was the live performance of Bohemian Nights (Ernie Gruner and Phil Carroll). Both men have a lot of experience in bands such as Yalla!, Jugularity and Klezmeritis and their live performance was extremely entertaining, as you would expect from two talented musicians with a long performing history.
Listening to this CD brought back some of those memories and I found it a most enjoyable experience.” - John Williams (Trad and Now) review of 2010 CD - Brothers in Borscht
