"New Lore confirms Rowe's status as one of Americana's most compelling and distinctive artists and, even with his imposing mountain man appearance, a sweet, warm hug for sore ears".

"Earthy alt-folk bard Sean Rowe returns with New Lore, his fourth outing for the Anti- label. With his gently fingerpicked guitar and resounding baritone voice, Rowe's records have typically felt like introspective soul journeys whose emotional scales tip subtly with varying degrees of darkness and light ... Between his sincerity and the warmly captured performances, Rowe has added another fine record to his growing canon".

"A heavily bewhiskered singer-songwriter and wilderness survival instructor from New York, Sean Rowe recently had one of his songs, To Leave Something Behind, featured in Ben Affleck's The Accountant. Whether you heard that or not, you really should seek him out, New Lore, his fifth album, is a fine showcase for his throaty, rumbling baritone and moodily affecting songs of loneliness and longing, augmented throughout by piano and strings ... an album that infuses itself into your heart and soul".
