“Effortlessly cool, sunburnt soul.”
Dave Paulson - Nashville Tennessean

“On That Old Southern Drag, Sweany's voice can be as wizened as a dust bowl or as warm as a two-inch analog tape. His sound and songs rarely fail to capture the muscular drive of both early rock & roll and back-to-the-jukes blues.”
Roy Kasten - St. Louis Riverfront Times

“Echoes of Sam Cooke and Marv Johnson...bind this record together and capture the Rust Belt rocker’s soulful drawl. (Sweany's) strongest album to date.”
Alan Brown - Pop Matters

“Sweany sings with one of those genre-defying, deeply soulful voices that Dan Penn used to turn into gold.”
Lindsay Millar - Arkansas Times

“Every Hour is a Dollar Gone is a perfectly balanced collection of soulful ballads and rollicking foot-stompers all infused with Sweany’s well-honed backwoods pop sensibility. Grade: A-”
Saw Kick Media

"NEW BLUES EXPLOSION! - His music has a loose, aggresive edge, but in his quiter moments, Sweany recalls the supple beauty of Ry Cooder's 70s readings of Depression-era pop blues."
Gabe Soria - MOJO (UK)
