The Eureka Times Standard said: "The band displays a familiarity that draws the audience in right off the bat.*Just pretend we’re in the living room*, Koken says, *having a few drinks and playing a few tunes.* Oh, but don't befooled by the just-folks, easy demeanor. These people are take-no-prisoner, downright hot musicians."
Bluegrass Unlimited said: “Orpheus Supertones have captured the essence of early country music.”
