about

"Confirms a real and singular talent." (4/5)-the List

"A record brimming with musical ideas and life"
- SoundsXP

"His third album features a bewildering array of homemade instrumentation, and a dozen warm and witty ditties"
(4/5) -Scotland On Sunday

"I’ll condense it into this: He sings about animals and builds his own junkyard instruments! It is an outsider album with little care for fashion or fear of ridicule and for that I applaud it. It’s also an enjoyable, often engrossing record and for that I recommend it."
- Is This Music magazine

"He's a serious proposition" -Q

"This is one eccentric who does not disappoint."
-The Skinny
