Barnard brought the crowded coffee shop to it's knees-        utterly terrific.        Make mine a double espresso!!        Best wishes from the Fitz-Gitts!

Rich Barnard is nothing short of a GIT. The way he plays his guitar is sexual, his voice trembles my fanny!    Not only is he a wonderful singer, but his song's ain't bad to!    Bring on the album you sexy little git!
Peter Van Hoi Git - Oct 05

Enjoyed your gig at the 12 bar, Rich. Ace performance, presentation, jokes, guitar playing, dynamic vocals, oh yes and songs. And can i have a discount for my next guitar lesson?

GOOD PHOTO ALONG WITH SOME FINE TUNES!  KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
RICHARD W. BARNARD - Feb 05

Saw this chappie play at the 12 bar in 2004.  Blew my socks off.  Thoughtful, well crafted, and competent.  But enough about my socks.  Give this lad a whirl, and I suspect you will enjoy it.    Richard (no relation)

I read that Mr Barnard was born the same year 'the king' died! That makes him a very special man indeed. Rich, I think you are a very talented young thing- you combine the influences of many of the legendary greats... keep it up. Best wishes from all the Gits!
Gertruit Git - May 04

So when they asked me...'Rich Barnard' - one word sprung to mind - GIT - 'G' for genius, 'I' for Inspiring and 'T' for terrrific. Mr Barnard, not only a handsome man but also a fantastic strummer - in all senses of the word.  I Love u

Jenny McGit - Jan 04

i was a dying patient in hositpal, with 1 day to live until i heard rich's smooth and silky voice. the doctors nearly had a heart-attack when i lept out of my bed and yelled 'jesus bless barnard'.!!!

THIS ADVISE I HAVE READ IS THE BEST I HAVE HEARD IN A LONG WHILE AND IS MUCH APPRICIATED I HAVE LEARNT ALOT AND HAVE TAKEN ABOARD THAT IT AINT 'JUST A DEMO'AND I WILL PROGRESS 2 MAKE MY DEMO THE BEST THAT IT CAN POSSIBLY B
SHERIENA HARRISON - Jul 03

All I have to say is that take a GAMBLE, go and see Rich. Mix raw talent, masterful songwriting craft and gorgeous stage presence for a quality night out.  P.S. When you record you're E.P. Rich, I think a cover version of 'Gamble' by Jon Spalding would go down a treat.  Respect.  x

Rich Barnard deserves your love, respect, attention and money...    One of the most underrated singer-songwriters in existence.    Get yourself a good drink, a broken heart, and a comfortable seat, then waste some time with this man. You won't regret it.
Stephen A Chin - Nov 02

sorry rich. Meant to say GENIUS!
brian smith - Nov 02

I may be egotistical but at least I can spell "existence".
Rich - Nov 02

Brian Smith. I know where you live. I am coming for you.
auntie - Nov 02

rich, I think you are the most pathetic individual in existance. EGOTISTICAL springs to mind.
brian.smith - Nov 02

Am visit from slovakia.  I hear the Barnard and is wonderfull! Please excuse English, I am incontinent.
Kobalovski - Nov 02

I'm a rapper and have just reached the standard where it is safe! to make a demo.  Just wanted to say I think thats the most realistic, straight up common sense advice I've had so far.  thanks!
Debbie Owusu - Jul 02

I ate a sandwhich while listening to Rich last time I saw him. I nearly choked, he was so good, I sy nearly but no bodily reflex gets between me and my BLT. Hope to see more of the little fella soon (show us some leg, sexy boy!). Seriously, If someone neeeds to record a quality EP/Album featuring well programmed beats and synths and junk like that it's Rich. Whaddya say Rich?
French Augustine - Jul 02

Hello Richy boy. Just wanted to say hi from Sunny Bournemouth. Love the songs - keep em coming... When are you going to do some gigs down here then eh???
aNdyman - Mar 02

Greg Jones - Feb 02

Just dropping by for a cuppa too. Can I have mine in a blue mug please.:o) I think you're fab, but that is just a Single-Sided View. Nice photo, isn't that a halo above your head?!  
Astrid - Nov 01

Love the new short hair piccy. It was way overdue!! Hope to get a nice cuppa(no sugar) next time I see you play again. Soon I hope! Love Ma.X
molly barnard - Nov 01

King of the Dwarves! Could I have a coffee instead?  Rich Barnard's songs are better than most you've ever heard before, though he will probably chastise me for saying so.
Joan - Nov 01

Ooo I'd love a cuppa if there's one going spare!  Hope to catch one of your gigs again soon, as it's been far too long since I heard one of your wonderful songs!  Love the new pic too!  Love Eddy xxx
Edwina - Nov 01

Wait a minute! Can I have a cup of tea as well?
spekki - Oct 01

When can I come to your house for a cup of tea?
Jude Cole - Oct 01

nice one!  from one rich to another
Richard Marsden - Jul 01

Rich writes songs about love and the frailty of human relationships.  A skilful songwriter both lyrically and musically, his take on the subject easily avoids the usual pitfalls of the love song cliche.  I was lucky enough to catch Rich at the Big Note on the 17th of June. It was a confident, effortless performance.  If you missed it, kick yourself now.  It was an evening where magic seemed to hang in the air.  CD available soon I hope.
Steve Clarke - Jun 01

Excellent man, excellent tunes on an excellent site.  All my very best wishes to you Rich    Jon
Jon - Apr 01

Please ask VAC to update your photo to one with short hair !!! Glad to see you are still in the charts! Love Mum.
Molly Barnard - Mar 01

A compact lesson in singer-songwriting and how to do it, but that remark is primarily intended to reflect upon his originality. The quality of his act extends well into the sophisticated; his obvious (and totally vindicated) devotion to music and the art of it is an aid and not a hindrance. And a thoroughly approachable chap to boot. A fine live act, sometimes slick, but at best his performances and singing have a raw tremor on top of the virtuosity, and this is unmissably special. Someone to watch in concert repeatedly; the experience is never less than musically educational (in the best sense!)

Mellow 'Tunes' & Strumming Guitar  My Personal Favs : "Paper Disguise" (see above) and the one about "nothing being right when its gone wrong" (What IS that song called!)
