The changing wilderness

"Alternately philosophical, critical, and appreciative as the album progresses, The Changing Wilderness is smart and affecting throughout, with a timeless quality despite its topical inspirations".

"Having over the past 13 years sought to locate a stylistic midpoint somewhere between Jackson Browne and Nick Drake, New York state's Will Stratton has developed a musical character pretty much all his own. There are also echoes of more modern kindred musical souls such as Steve Gunn and Fionn Regan, and if Stratton previously tended lyrically towards the introspective - understandably, when writing about overcoming cancer on 2014's Gray Lodge Wisdom - here he turns his gaze outwards".

"This American singer- songwriter has made no bones about his debt to Nick Drake and Sufjan Stevens. But this seventh studio set houses music that's just as haunting and evocative, so much so that any reference points fade into irrelevance".
