Albums A Suncrush for Sweethearts, 5 song EP

Press Reviews Friendship Key to Musical Weekend, The Norman Transcript, February 26, 1999: "....Stopping in from New York City, Sarmiento hada jagged little edge to his rock. New material like 'Highway 9 Blues' (working title) had attitude tough as a Greene Street art dealer. But there was still that Sarmiento vulnerability,sweet as Fire Island on a Friday afternoon."Suncrush offers poetry, honesty, The Oklahoma Daily, August 20, 1997: "....Sarmiento's brutal honesty, delivered in a manner varying from delicate to raw, leaves the listener with the tangled imagery of a wide-eyed,soul-searching skeptic. Picturesque and thought provoking, his songs follow in the seldom-filled footsteps of musical poets such as Leonard Cohen and Elvis Costello.
