"Sitting on a Mountain" — Simplified

"...Truth be told, what’s not to like: their down-to-earth persona and penchant for playing live goes well with their appreciation for their fans and vice versa."

"... this is non compromising rock that will appeal to fans of different genres."

"... feel-good grooves that anchor the entire disc, a sunny, upbeat sound that’s tailor-made for a night of singing along near the front of the stage, arms wrapped around good friends and drinks in hand."

"Brighter Days is a collection of good old-fashioned southern rock-and roll, with a modern twist. It’s clear that the members of Simplified have had their musical training, and know how to use it well."

"The band's unique blend of reggae, rock, folk and funk is one that appeals to a wide array of music lovers. Songs such as "Low" and "Sugartree" are chock full of great guitar licks and catchy choruses designed to get toes tapping."

“...what makes this band so unique from all the other bands on the scene?... One reason is they are a well known college band that is in high demand by venues attracting college people. Second is they have a cool sound that is a mixture funk and rock that gives them a very unique sound...”

“Simplified packs the house whenever they play and the band is one name that's constantly being mentioned around the office. The band's style infuses reggae and rock and "Low" will give you an idea of why they're so popular. ”

““Every song weaves memorable vocal hooks with bold musicianship, creating a radio-friendly experience that will have you humming their tunes long after the last note fades.” ”

“Serving a rare combination of rock, reggae, country, jam, and more, Clee, Chris, Tim, and Chris are headed for a future playing huge crowds. Enjoy them while the seats are still cheap! ”

“...Simplified write breezy pop songs that are best enjoyed with a summertime cocktail in hand...Clee Laster guides the pop-rockers through a maze of rock, jazz, reggae and even light funk.”

“It's not too easy to describe Simplified's music ­ maybe that's why they chose the name? It's simplified only in its mood ­ the kind of music to sit back on a front porch and have a drink with some friends. Laid-back, but not without talent...”

“The boys of Simplified are road dogs. They play hard and often, and the seasoning that comes only with experience has never more apparent in this band than it is on their new live CD,Live At The Visulite.”

“...Every member of this band is phenomenal and what¹s more phenomenal is that they have found each other and formed such a powerful musical infrastructure...”

“The Charlotte rock band Simplified writes potent songs, but on stage is where the quartet's musicianship really shines.”
