"It is a thrill of an album using wit, style and excellent musicianship."
Davy Sims, Producer, Broadcaster, exBBC Editor, Northern Ireland

"As soon as the first song begins, you realize you've found something special here. Music played with joy, music with heart. Soaring voices, top notch musicianship, cleverly crafted original songs and first rate production are brought together with a genuine flair and feel for the compositions. These folks aren't just going through the motions of making music, they've crafted the real deal here, blending the old and new into a wonderfully pleasing sound. Records this enchanting don't come along every day, so don't miss this one."
