British Comedy Guide, 5th December 2018Rich Hall's Hoedown - The Lowry, Salford review
There's never been a better time for a sharp, honest look at the United States, and Rich Hall, with his sardonic outlook on life, does it with style.

Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 3rd December 2018Rich Hall, Birmingham Town Hall - review
Stand-up comedy and country music might just sound like a bizarre mix, but comedian Rich Hall just makes it work.
The Express and Star, 13th October 2018Rich Hall, Theatre Severn, Shrewsbury - review
Rich is as sharp as ever, and his style of humour is perfect for these uncertain times.
Mat Growcott, The Shropshire Star, 5th March 2018Review: Rich Hall's Hoedown, Queen's Hall, Edinburgh
As a cultural ambassador for the US, Rich Hall has become the sort of hard-gigging, craggy troubadour he so venerates in Willie Nelson and so disparages in Bob Dylan - the latter an American icon whose diminishing returns from endless touring leaves the comic feeling furiously short-changed. Happily for fans of the world-weary Hall, though, while there's a sizeable chunk of classic material here, especially in hilarious songs such as Rose of Hawick, with his setlist tailored to a Scottish audience, the new material is vital and incredulously angry.
Jay Richardson, The Scotsman, 27th February 2018Rich Hall's Hoedown review
A deadpan delight of stand-up and toe-tapping Americana.
