more Herman Dune reviews....

“I Wish I Could See You Soon is apparently what happens when David Herman Dune falls in love – lots ot tambourine, floral smiles and lovely, lovely lyrics like: “The angels go ‘How long til you can see her?’ And I’m like ‘The sooner the better.’” A band of simple pleasures, and ones you can too
enjoy.” – THE GUARDIAN

“…dark’ n’ droll, regret’n’ whisky sodden pop. With the addition of backing girls The Woo-Woos, though, they’re getting closer to that ‘60s sound they’ve aspired to all along, which (in their heads at least) sounds like
Jonathan Richman backed by The Crystals.” - TIME OUT LONDON

“The genre tripping is endless: there are gypsy jams, country-rock numbers (recalling The Band), folk songs (recalling Paul Simon & Van Morrison), ukulele ballads, the lot. And now they’ve got a fanbase to show it off to.
After eight years of hard work, it’s the very least they deserve.” – THE INDEPENDENT (UK)
