"Genius ... Jaw-dropping vocals ... Session Americana is blessed in this
regard: ...musicianship that sets the standard for the genre in Boston
and vocals that do the same"

"No egos, no big production, just some great songs
stripped down to their bare essentials and performed with
a real genuineness of spirit and emotional authenticity...
it's beautiful." (Brian Mosher)

of community and decency since the Nitty Gritty Dirt
Band's Will the Circle Be Unbroken."
