REVIEWS

author: Alex Yontz
I enjoyed this cd. There were a few stand out songs on it such as survival, 42 days, so sorry, and envelope but many of the songs tended to sound like one another and his hushed vocals could come off as boring at times. However, it is a great cd for night time driving.

Great Talent
author: Tim Stone
I have known Stephen for 10 years. He is truly one of the great talents of our generation. Not only are his songs insightful, the care with which they were recorded shows a love for the art of recording that is missing from so many indie recordings. In each song the mood is apparent almost from the first chord. Stephen's voice clearly evokes the emotions he feels in each track. This is, in my opinion, one of the greatest self-produced albums available.
