"In searching for the 'American Dream', J.S. Ondara has found something that is all his own; but his debut explores the universal themes of seeking love or something indefinable, of the need for acceptance and hope. This is a powerful album, full of integrity and intelligence, offering a great deal of future promise. J.S. Ondara is one to watch".

"Perhaps his unlikely career path exemplifies the "American Dream." But the lyrics are darker, more questioning about the American experience and the difficulties the country faces on "There's no catching a breath/ There's no rest till you're dead." It's that sense of searching combined with Ondara's spellbinding and, well, haunting voice that makes this an early contender for one of the finest and most moving Americana albums of the year".
