“The self titled EP is five tracks worth of guitar-based, moody atmospherics reminiscent of Paul Weller or Eels that would best be consumed in a dark, smoky bar - Reserved about shameless self promotion – more Thom Yorke than Freddie Mercury on stage – but affable and easy to talk to over coffee". And make no mistake, he’s quietly making a name for himself here, on the mainland and in the US.” - Elizabeth Kerr
