“Jason Kerrison seems to not only to have performed this music, but he has inhaled it in spirit and substance. Up until today, I was completely ignorant of anything Jason Kerrison had done before. So I came to this track, free from anything other than a desire to not waste my time. I wasn’t disappointed. The music is absolutely beautiful, the lyrics are well-written, and the song hasn’t left my speakers in several days. That’s rare for me!”

“Kerrison has a strong, earthy voice that manages to be commercial without being generic, and the same thing could be said about the whole song, which has been produced to perfection. Though it is a solo release, there is some accomplished musicianship backing him up, and the overall sound is not too dissimilar to one of New Zealand’s finest exports, Crowded House. (7.8 out of 10)”
—  Alex Faulkner, THE FAULKNER REVIEW

“..a terrific big production release which rings with sonic sheen and sincerity. *****”

"Kerrison is slow to categorise himself and appears open to suggestions. He finds an idea and floats it, unwilling to let it define him"
