A collection of well-crafted songs that would do Bruce Springsteen proud. Endorsed by
the vocal contribution of legendary Texan songwriter Townes Van Zandt.....roots cred or what!
ROLLING STONE
Rousing, heart-rending and gritty in just the right measure
TIME OUT.
Great themes of despair and classic country melancholy
MOJO
A unique acheivement, an album that evokes the late 60's of The Band yet can take also take on 90's country rock leaders Wilco.
THE SUNDAY TIMES .
These songs demonstrate a flair for achingly tuneful country-rock that doesn't sound forced or unconvincing
COUNTRY MUSIC INTERNATIONAL.
‘The Leaving Time' and ‘Gods Other Son' are genuinely affecting songs. Neither songs would be out of place in the pomp of God's chosen son Gram Parsons. There is no higher compliment to pay.
SPINS
Contemporary country rock that fuses The Band, The Jayhawks, Green on Red with a Britishness that makes it quite unique
THE GUARDIAN
Melodic and creative, these songs exude lyrical content that is both meaningful and imaginative.
ROCK ‘N' REEL
Great rolling country-rock....a glorious trip down lost highways and heartaches
MANCHESTER EVENING NEWS
A strong gospel feels that roots itself firmly in the classic country-rock tradition of The Byrds, The Band and Gram Parsons
THE SCOTSMAN
A stunning debut album full of big broad melodies and country-tinged rockers
LANCASHIRE EVENING POST
Michael Weston King has the kind of goosebump inducing voice that sounds as if it has been marinated in good bourbon and dunked in honey.
ABERDEEN EVENING EXPRESS
When his band is in full twanging flight the sound is nothing short of glorious
THE LIST
This album should be nominated for album of the year and Michael Weston King should
be up for songwriter of the year.
RHYTHM, COUNTRY AND ROCK ‘N' ROLL.
A truly exceptional British country/folk rock album for anyone who likes their music lean, raw and rhythmical.
