"One of my favorite music films of the year...a very poetic film that balances it’s material carefully and treats the artist in focus with respect...An honor to have it as the opening film of Musikfilm Festivalen 2019".
Morten Tang - Press and Editorial Director, Danish Film Institute
"Wow...beautiful...After watching the film, I felt like I knew Eric Andersen as a person...but as an artist, I feel like
I know him a whole lot more." Doug Jayne - Northern California Public media
"It's a portrait of a creative genius swept up in the currents around him and sometimes dashed against the rocks...Andersen is deeply changed by these encounters but continues moving steadily ahead on his own runaway train...The stories and images are indelible and deeply compelling." Augusta Palmer - Filmmaker
“It is a terrific film, a poignant biography, a mystery, a musical feast and a love story…
The Songpoet…is haunting.”
David Rosenthal- Editor-at-Large. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishers
