"I PLAYED WITH HANK FOR MANY YEARS AND I WAS HIS BEST FRIEND. NO ONE IN MY TIME HAS COME CLOSER TO HANK'S LOOK, SOUND AND NATURAL CHARISMA THAN JASON. HE'S THE BEST, HANDS DOWN!"
---DON HELMS (1927-2008), MEMBER OF THE DRIFTING COWBOYS (HANK'S BAND)

ROLLING STONE --

"Jason Petty, who plays Williams, doesn't just capture the phrasing and cadences of Williams' singing.  He varies his delivery with the command of a performer who is fully inhabiting his character, not merely rendering him.  I was genuinely surprised, even stunned, by Petty's forceful, clear-eyed and moving depiction of Williams." - Anthony Decurtis

​

ST. LOUIS POST_DISPATCH-- 

" The kid's a hit! If you weren't a Hank Williams fan when you walked in, you were when you walked out. He has Williams' moaning yodel down pat."

---Tom Uhlenbrock

​

NEW YORK POST--

"At times it seems as if Petty is not just offering an impersonation of Williams, but channeling his ghost.

---Donald Lyons/Dan Aquilante

​

NEW YORK TIMES --

 "Jason Petty does a remarkably good job of rendering Williams' famous melodies with the silky warble and sob that recreate their touching simplicity."

---Bruce Weber
