Press Reviews Shaking Tree 'Sound of Rain' review from www.preamp.com - Music news and reviews - "...The album has a heavy dose of both slower, moody love songs, and more upbeat danceable tunes. The end result though is always positive, and the song writing is excellent. From opener "Expectations" to end track "Out of Touch", there is no filler, just constantly great music. Shaking Tree are a band who transcend easy classification and who should be moving onto huge things any day now. If you have just a touch of romance in your heart and rhythm in your soul then grab this album before they go onto superstar status. Excellent, excellent, excellent." -by Limeygit
