- Rob Adams, Glasgow Herald
"Ear-opening volley of musical fire from the rising Borders-based big band, fusing folk with all the juicy bits from jazz and funk, to great effect."
- Radio 2 website
"Packs plenty of energy and punch...very enjoyable. 3/4"
- Kenny Mathieson, The List
"An iconoclastic, irreverent, but deeply, rhythmically musical beast."
- Norman Chalmers, Scotland on Sunday
"A superior record...a wonderful band" - Michael Marra
