Press Reviews "This kid's really going places! The disc puts all the pieces together: clever, thoughtful lyrics; supremely confident playing; solid production; and compelling melodies. (Washington Citypaper)GENERAL: "Never boring,occasionally mellow and sweet, often hillarious, distinctly original." Gig-a-byte Walkabout "I like it alot. The guitar has a really nice chord progression and I like the backround vocals. Great Song!" Tranzgression"Great Song! I hear Joe Jackson in the vocals. And that rocks because I'm a huge Joe Jackson fan. Good guitar work for the solo. It has a catchy sound. The backup vocals come in at just the right time, towards the end to give you some variety. 9 out of 10" Blind ManThe Only Way"Wow, the music is great. Really pretty song. 9 out of 10" Blind ManSoy Muy Caliente Disco"Pretty groovy. lots of cool sounds and instruments in there. weird/cool lyrics. you're a lot cooler than dave matthews band. I like all the changes in the song... the little riff from frampton… it keeps building." Blue"Well now there's some real musicianship happening in this tune. Gets the droogies boppin and hoppin.. a light hearted fun tune.. with just the right amount of sardonic jabbing in vocals to keep it out of happy town. I laughed out loud at the "touch my hair again and I'll cut you" bit. verycool, that.. All in all a highly enjoyable tune, well performed." LutsikCatherine Calls: "I really enjoyed This song. This song could be sold to a movie…musically this song is AWESOME....my highest rating yet…I hope to hear the new cd." Chip Ritter
