Press Reviews "Both Points of View is a AAA radio ready gem filled with their unique high timbered harmonies...it's the kind of an album that'll make a long drive on a gray winters day seem sunny!" ~Boston Globe"Their Harmonies sound the same as singers who harmonize with themselves via over dub. It's almost like one voice...they are so good they could make schlock material sound good." ~Face Magazine Portland , ME" I have found (the Scharff Brothers) to be one of the strongest duos on the current songwriter scene" Dick Pleasants, WUMB/WGBH radio"Catchy guitar melodies, quirky lyrics and lush vocal and guitar harmonies spouted continuously... The engaging album pulls the listener from beginning to end, drawing form a variety of pop music including Barenaked Ladies, Goo Goo Dolls and Fastball... This band, playing its mix of pop and rock, could easily fall into the tapestry of music heard today on commercial radio stations across the country." - The Times Record
