Sounds Like: ‘There's no question that these guys know what they're doing on these … songs. Their brand of UK-influenced Americana sits very easily alongside other home-grown talents such as Grand Drive and Peter Bruntnell, and given a chance wouldn't sound out of place on Bob Harris's radio shows’
