"Bleak and poetic" - Mojo

"Harrington specialises in a peculiarly literate take on Americana...his elegant ballads serve as impressionistic mini-movies" - Uncut

"His personal brand of hushed intimacy, and musical settings are both supremely sparse and perversely rich...his meditative, insightful poetic inventions are destined to haunt you for a long time" - Folk Radio

"The spirit of Cohen is everywhere." - AmericanaUK

"It's dark, it's bare, it's melancholic, it's moody and above all else it's brilliant" - Narc Magazine

"...beautifully devastating." - Libération

"Sad, rich and exhilarating...slows the pulse but not the imagination." - Les Inrocks
