"a rollicking press ganged rum soaked stirring shanty of some measure borne out of a rampantly energised acoustically strummed swing-tastic toe tapping saga from the high seas braided by deliciously decoded flotillas of hauntingly shimmering jangles to deliver a homely brew of chest beating goo that catapults you through a myriad of emotions while it freewheels through an eye pokingly ramshackle and finitely crooked fun filled sidestepping haze of furious folk and moments of tranquil mellowness."
LOSING TODAY
"it makes me want to throw my computer out the window and jump on the next slow-boat to the South Pacific."
LOBSTER QUADRILLE MAGAZINE
"the lyrics conjure jungle creatures, striped men with handlebar moustaches, ladies with parasols and adventures on the high seas"

Jan 2007 DEBUT E.P ’Making Friends With...’

"Songs as perfect as Staten Island Serenade defy comparisons to other bands, and as stated earlier, the music has such a crisp, defined sound, and it’s so pleasurable to listen, to that you forget about all your minor troubles, like writing semi-readable reviews...There really aren’t any weak tracks on this (thankfully) very long EP"
Lobster Quadrille Magazine
"Swinging like a world war to big band and happier than a barrel full of cockatoos."
Alex Gale, New-Noise.net
"This collection of songs is an excitable and contemporary mixture of folk and pop. The Zetland Players are filled with potential."
