“This album is intense, dramatic, scary, funny, amazing. The entire production is incredibly well made. Everything works perfectly…one of the most original records released this year,” (5/5 Exit Keys album review, Vents Magazine, Dominican Republic)
“Whether solo or with a band, his sound has usually combined a version of Gothic, Southern alt. country with something quite quirky and antipodean… Well worth checking out if names like Reed, Cohen, Cave and Waits already feature in your record collection,” (4/5 Exit Keys album review, Leicester Bangs, U.K)
