Press

“….the bones of the CD is the fine songwriting, from the dramatic opener 'Nietzsche Finds A Bullfight', the bittersweet ballad, 'Midnight Train' and 'Too Young For Romance', which reminded me of Nick Lowe”

— Dave Clarke, Scene Magazine

“...a dynamic and soulful style...”

— Anna Coutis, London Free Press

“...if the alt.country stalwarts do it for you, with an added Lightfoot touch, then this is worth checking out.”

— Patrick Wilkins, Americana-UK

“Payne carves a brooding persona steeped in roots of Dylan's 'Blood On The Tracks', Springsteen's 'Nebraska', Wilco's elliptical Americana, Son Volt's balladry ”

— Michael Canter, SonicJive.com/Jivewired.com

“Gordon Lightfoot and Lucinda Williams' lovechild?”

— Patrick Wilkins, Americana-UK
