“moody musical atmospheres... match the weary romanticism of the lyrics... ” Birmingham Post

“There’s the sound of Dire Straits in the languid guitar solo that flows from Simon Nelson’s liquid fingers on Keep Movin’ On. There are also shades of Robbie Robertson‘s early solo years along with whispers of Dylan, Knopfler and Chris Rea in the vocals.” Michael Verity.
