Band Members: PAT JOHNSON on vocals, guitar and mandolin “Rather than sounding derivative Johnson seems to have something happening that’s purely his own. If you like music that seems to have been conceived on a country front porch, this is for you.†T. Bruce Wittet, Muzik Etc.
“Pat Johnson knows a thing or two about style. The blues loving singer-songwriter from Brockville, ON has crafted an admiral debut … clean finger-style guitar gives the bluesier material a Mississippi John Hurt sort of charm and his lyrics are humorous and entertaining. Would surely make even Taj Mahal crack a smile.†Brent Hagerman, Exclaim!
