    Press Reviews
    "Among a proliferation of locally produced CDs -- some of which are simply sound pollution -- Protocol's eight tracks are an intriguing, impressive, original effort. Recalling bands such as...Pink Floyd, it's a lyrical, melodic, intelligent work that showcases Ferrill's ethereal vocals, Conway's masterful drumming and outstanding instrumentation by keyboardist Adam Bianchi and Ian Eskander on Chapman stick and bass." - Elena Jarvis, Ventura County Star
