Press Reviews John Thomason of the UCF Indpendent Journal writes: "lovely melodies and sincere storytelling" "The songs of Fantasy Life are as fresh as they are nostalgic, as addictive as they are simple" "his music taps into a melancholic timelessness" "Standout track 'Still Familiar Juice' is as accurate a song about sinking into the deceptive comfort of alcoholism as anything Tom Waits has penned" "More polished than Paul Westerberg's rustic solo work and more overtly relatable than Wilco's curious wordplay, Mauer's songwriting is delivered with genuine aplomb." "a true auteur"
