Press Reviews
"Mike Filipek has a Strong Hold on classic middle of the road rock,
flirting with rough-edged Songwriters like
Tom Petty & Neil Young."
Mish Mash Indie Music Reviews - August 2001
"The many influences on this album work to create
a melting pot of rich and vibrant sounds.
The Songwriting has an intelligence that I found to be
the backbone of this music."
Michael Allison THE GLOBALMUSE.COM - August 2001
