"a one man artistic venture in music. He works hard to bring more from the guitar than any performer in the area. His sound ranges from a light airy sound to a more full bodied sound as he rips the Gibson Acoustic through the air performing his magic. I recommend this artist for your listening pleasure highly.
"Chuck Durfor is about to release his latest CD...Chuck's talent is in a league of its own. He is one artist that weaves fluid sound and words into paths of delight. We highly urge you to check out this talented man in a live musical experience. You will not be disapointed with his musical set. Best Wishes go out to Chuck on his future release!"

"Durfor, a big fan of baroque and English folk, pushes the boundaries of creating music as much as he pushes his guitar playing. "
"His performance entails an equal mix of lyrical compositions and instrumentals ranging from ragtime blues to folk. Folks can expect to hear antything from a Louie Armstrong tune and a 16th-century Italian folk tune to the juxaposition of a Blind Blake piece against Bach."

"one the region's finest fingerstyle guitarists"

"Durfor will continue to break convention when he brings his one-man acoustical jam back to the Coffee House of Occoquan on Friday."
"new chords evolve when a guitarist slides his fingers down from basic chord positions into often unchartered territory. Durfor uses these techniques to blend folk, jazz, blues and ragtime into one show."
"Durfor relies on his own improvisation to model a variety of music into a new style. "I'll mix a Bach piece together with Blind Blake, a classic blues guitarist, something that'll never happen," Durfor said. "It's kind of a joke."

"Durfor is the type of musician who manages to surprise you."
