CRITICS CORNER

"...tight, country flavored... harmonies and solid song craft...a strong backing band that fills out their rootsy, rustic, Americana sound."
Paul Burton, Music Review Magazine

"...strong vocal harmonies and catchy melodic hooks on aching, airy songs with a folksy Americana bend...a subtle twangy pop sound...a vintage garage feel...quietly psychedelic"
Eric R. Danton, The Hartford Courant

"It's a sign of (the bands) skill as songwriters and performers that the cover tunes...are mostly indistinguishable from the (bands) own tunes."
Eric R. Danton, The Hartford Courant

"60's style country-rock....catchy guitar riff(s) and vocal harmonies that shine with the golden hue of the autumn sun."
Eric R Danton, The Hartford Courant
