"Part of the appeal is that it's not an easy instrument to float with. You have to be dedicated, and thus not a lot of people can play it, because it's much easier to just pick up a keyboard or guitar. You can get some kind of quick gratification from those instruments as a novice, but the pedal steel won't work. You've got to put in the years."
Daniel Lanois

Quotes/reviews:

"The Jedson Project er soloprosjektet. Her reflekteres himmel og hav i ei speilblank overflate av steelgitar og svevende stemninger. Det er musikk med mye luft, Lanois og et helt spesielt lys. Folk-inspirert ambience, kaller han det selv."
- www.pstereo.no

"The crystalline flow of lap steel guitar illuminates the spectral atmospheres of The Jedson Project's “Lela”. "
- www.textura.com

“Øyvind Berekvam steelt de show op pedalsteel. Elk nummer geeft hij prachtige invulling en sluit perfect aan bij het opengitaargeluid van Dybdahl.”
- 3VOOR12 Den Haag

“Øyvind Berekvam på pedal steel- og slide guitar er det forfinede, sårbare japanske kirsebærtræ. Det mærker hvert lille omslag i musikken og publikums stemning, samtidig med at det forjætter tilskueren med detaljer lige så delikate, som de er forbigående.”
- www.musik.dk

“Die wenigen nicht ganz so tollen Beiträge werden mehr als ausgeglichen durch Highlights wie beispielsweise »Varicelle« von Melodium (der in Musik gegossene Sonntags-Brunch: mit Glockenspiel und zurückhaltend-rhythmischen Drums), »Lela« von The Jedson Project (bei dem das Flirren heisser Luft in der letzten Szene jeden Westerns herausgehört werden kann) oder »Questions In Letters« von Rigil (dessen Idole offenbar Piano Magic und Raster-Noton sind). “
- www.spex.de

"Poor Edward håndterer selv gitarer ved siden av sine gjennomgående fortreffelige vokale prestasjoner. De får god hjelp av dyktige musikere. Steel- og mandogitarist Øyvind Berekvam er en av dem som trekker helheten opp."
- Puls

"The album is particularly helped by Øyvind Berekvam’s tasteful pedal steel and Erland Åsland’s lead guitar."
- Popmatters.com
