“Gruber leaves no base
uncovered: The songwriting, singing and musicianship are all strong, along
with a dash of personality that is both whimsical and vulnerable.”

“Yesterday is Make Believe is an enjoyable
collection of songs that highlight Gruber’s best talents…
The tracks run the gamut from easy swinging folk with R& B leanings, to pop
songs in a band setting, to finger-style acoustic instrumentals. The
emphasis is squarely on the acoustic guitar and Gruber’s rich baritone which
places him in the company of Greg Brown and Willy Porter…”
