"It’s no wonder today’s featured artist, Scott West, has garnered a slew of awards in the short time he’s been doing his thing. Having been featured on both Maxim and Playboy Radio as the “Official Spring Break Song,” his track “Room 413 Please Remember Me” is a lo-fi, bluesy number with one of the catchiest hooks you’ll ever hear! If you can imagine 70’s crossover folk and great 80’s radio pop colliding with contemporary indie sounds, it might just sound a lot like Scott West & Sex On Sunday. Download and enjoy!"

"Sex on Sunday has the requisite energy, varying rhythm, lyrical diversity, and consistent harmonies that when the parts are added up, it's nothing less than a first-rate groove fest. All of the lyrics come to you easily and many stay with you for a good long time. There are some impressive orchestrated set-ups to the songs, great tingling of the ivories, and some jammin' guitar work. This is a polished CD with a vintage British (think Beatles) influence. The songs are catchy, clever and I predict their next venture into the studio will bring them overdue fame and fortune."

"Smart, sweet, seamless! West’s layered harmonies, dynamic arrangements, and melodic lyrical sense twist power, grace and atmosphere into a singular kindred touch. 'Sex On Sunday' is timeless and now, relevant and moving, precise and painterly, subtle and seductive, uniquely familiar and destined to create the burning desire for more."
The Nashville Scene

"Auld Lang Syne: Scott West & Sex On Sunday (November 2006) Featuring Tesla guitarist Frank Hannon and Sex On Sunday's Scott West, this version of Auld Lang Syne begins with West's dynamic piano and strings swelling into Hannon's searing guitar work. West's arrangement deserves top honors for its beautiful textures, riveting crescendos, fueled by the magnificently fresh power and tone of Hannon's burning fret work. This warm arrangement brings an edgy, contemporary sophistication to the song, making it the best recording of this holiday classic."

"If you think hearing "Auld Lang Syne" on New Year's is bound to be ho-hum, you're humming the wrong tune. On the Web, you can find a myriad of exciting alternative renditions for the stroke-of-midnight classic, including the riveting arrangement by Scott West and Sex On Sunday featuring poignant piano and soaring electric guitars."

Dan Fogelberg (contemporary treatment, 1981); 5. Bing Cosby (traditional vocal, 1949); 6. Ronnie Brown (Scot-influenced vocal and arrangement, 1999); 7. Beach Boys (harmonized a cappella vocal, 1965); 8. Kenny G (audio collage of historic political and entertainment tidbits, 2002); 9. Jimi Hendrix (avant garde guitar, 1969); 10. Highland Pipers (Scottish flute, 1998)."
