"...creative ideas, boldness, and conviction"  - Downbeat Magazine

"an immediately engaging disc that will continue to fascinate and resonate with repeated listens"  - Living Blues

"...this music is as soulful as it is deep, as it is profound - as terrifying as it is satisfying." 5 stars  - Gonzo Magazine (Canada)

-Twangville
