Hayseed at Old Hilliardfest 2016
"Hayseed is, in my mind, on the same level as Bob Dylan and Neil Young and Van Morrison," “That's just what I think, that's my opinion, for what it's worth. I don't say that about everybody who comes down the pike, and you can ask anybody who knows me. Music has to grab me in a certain way, and the stuff that does that, it's a time-transcendent thing. I put Hayseed right in there with that batch of stuff." – Lucinda Williams
