Press Reviews
Jump in the Van (review) These guys do some fun ultra poppy stuff. I swear to god this is Ben Folds Five testing stuff out. --Anonymous reviwer on garageband.comAppointment (review) Anonymous - Shelbyville, Illinois I'm a sucker for sensitive piano/vocal piecesEarly Billy Joel, with just a touch of Elton John. I liked it, but I'm a sucker for sensitive piano/vocal pieces. This song could've stood up to a little MORE post-production, (string quartet?) and I have a feeling that the singer is capable of a stronger performance. I'll bet he's 'killer' singing live. Alright With Me (review) Anonymous - Linwood, Pennsylvania Good Tunes10 years after meets elton john. Neither is a bad thing |
