Press

“ "Frankly it's a real boost to discover a genuine world class practitioner who restores your faith in the genre..." ”

— Tom Robinson, Tom Robinson BBC6 Music

“Lovely stuff.....like Gruff Rhys does The White Album”

— Real Wood Records

“an old-fashioned troubadour in the strictest sense. Strumming gentle folk songs on his guitar, his warm and soulful voice conjures up memories of sun-kissed summer nights out on the lawn ”

— The Metro - One To Watch

“One of the most beautiful set of songs I've heard for a long time. Alex Highton is, in my opinion set for very big things. A must have album for any discerning music lover”

— The Waiting Room On Error FM

“Song writing ability, he has in spades. Patience to allow himself to express his feelings, he has in shovels......Alex is brilliant and I will say this to you good folks… If he's doing a venue near you, then go and see him.”

— Living Athiest

“4.5 out of 5.........Each song feels like a little story that you can almost see unfolding as you listen...groovy songs with a latter day Beatle-esque warmth and Ron Sexsmith intrigue”

— Gonzo Magazine

"A Great British Album...charmingly individual...(it) exists in an idyll not a long ramble from the Village Green Preservation Society...(an) album to slip on and enjoy from year to year

— Sic Magazine

“music that transports you to long hot summer days and hazy mornings. With toes dipped in psychedelia, folk and pure pop. A sublime and hypnotic sounding collection of songs...a inger/songwriter destined for impressive things...a gorgeously realised first impression" ”

— UK Music Search

Alex - with great pleasure I have watched you grow over past 18 months into a fine songwriter. The new album is class. Good luck with the promo!

Village Life is sweet ambrosia. Your voice, the sound of the guitars, the arrangement -- all just great. Frank Smith
