Derik, your talents and musical genius are inspiring every day. La traffic is bearable with a daily silver lining thanks to you! If you happened to cover Jason Mraz's 'I won't give up' it would be epic!

Hi Derik, I just want to say how amazing your voice is and your songs are so good to listen to! You're so talented and I hope to one day go see you live in America or somewhere soon! Love, Celeste

I go to FIDM & I saw a poster about your CD launch at USC. I went last night with a friend & I must say you are very talented (along with the rest of the band) Can't wait for the new CD to come to itunes. I'll definitely be at the next event. Keep up the good sounds

hey derik! i love your music so much(: your songs really help me get through the day. i love john mayer and when i found out you did i said to myself "wow". it takes a lot for a guy to like john mayer. that says a lot about you. keep it up, and please come out with another album soon! been missing your tunes!

love your fan, -rachael

Hi Derik good job, i like it. it`s posible see you some day in Madrid?

Saludos desde España!!!!!!

I haven't been listening to you all that much, but I have to say that your smile could light up anyone's day, and is a wonderful gateway to such an earth shattering set of vocal chords. You're definitely going somewhere.

Hey Derik, I've been listening to your own material, it's SO great! I totally loved it. You like John Mayer, don't you? Because your voice is just as soft and sweet as his.

Best wishes,

Your fan

PS: Come to Argentina!!!

you sound so much like kurt elling

hey dery, my name is sabine, and i'm from Berlin in germany, so please ignore my bad english... yesterday i listened to a wonderful song by you.. i've forgotten the name, but i know only one verse called: "I love you!" i just started to cry, cause i've lost my boyfriend one week ago, and you make you me feel happy again... I wish you would send me your favourite song, so i can listen to it everyday! wish you a nice day, and hope you answer me very soon!

in love, your sabby

PS: I think you're the greatest guy with strong guitar- player-arms, i've ever seen... :*

i feel like you are one of those artists who in a couple years i'll hear on the radio and think to myself. 'i knew him since like a helluh long time ago, i knew he was going to be famous, pft.' lol. but seriously, your natural artist. though i'm still skeptical on your saxophone skills. lol (=
