"Fine, catchy tracks. Smart lyrics + rockin' guitars = diggin' it." - Jon Auer of The Posies 

"Powered by the sublime pop stylings of songwriter Elliot Hilton." -Pulse

"If you're a Replacements, Tommy Keene, Tommy Stinson, or any sort of pop-rock fan at all, Elliot Hilton is right up your alley. This five-song EP digs down deep to find the best of their best, and a doozy it is. Kicking off with the gruff yet loveable “Sunny All The Time,” the band immediately sets the pace for the entire EP with wisdom-inflected lyrics and to-die-for instrumentation. 

Hilton is beyond talented- he's gifted and happily human in his work, and that's what makes for a great pop artist, hands down." 
-'Round The Dial Magazine

"Melodic and catchy pop hooks. When “Sunny All The Time” starts, it’s clear Hart Lake Mystery knows know to write smart and listenable songs." - Rift Magazine
