What those dastardly CRITICS have to say:

"...the album is a towering triumph of the indie pop variety. Album opener “Waves” only has three lines of verses before it segues into a sea of chiming, orchestral beauty. It’s the kind of song to listen to when busting open the doors to greet a warm, summer morning. One can almost visualize the Pixar scene unfolding as the trumpet wails, an acoustic guitar strums and a flourish of melodious grandeur ensues. Truth be told, of all the songs that have come across my desk so far this year, few have an album opener as triumphant or cheery as "Waves."
-Greg Robson, Absolutepunk.net

"The interplay between these other instruments-- particularly the trumpet-- and the acoustic guitar manages to recall artists like Jon Brion and Neutral Milk Hotel..."
-Joe Hemmerling, SuburbanHorror.com

"Melodically eccentric, yet musically adept, the record totes a unique brand of mellowed pop. Clocking in at a mere nineteen minutes, the six distinctive selections feature multi-layered orchestration, including well-placed trumpet lines, violin strokes, and twinkles on the glockenspiel. “Waves” and “The Gardener” are prime examples; both are enjoyable instrumentals, with the latter sonically fit for a Charlie Brown Christmas special. “Winter Blues” is the creative gem and album standout, baiting with its addictive horn hook and subtle “ooh-las."
