"The Traveler is an all-killer no-filler album. It features all sorts of influences, but everything is done well. The Traveler has blues elements, but is a very song-oriented album. We all know Shepherd can shred, but the guitar is always serving the song. When listening to The Traveler it's easy to tell Kenny and the Band weren't trying to fit into any particular box, just make a great record and that's what they've accomplished. The Traveler is another can't miss album from the Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band".

"His latest studio effort finds his instrumental confidence again at a high level. The 42-year-old gives no quarter: rocket-launched rounds of high-explosive guitar virtuosity rain on satisfactory originals and covers of old Buffalo Springfield and Joe Walsh songs".

"Shepherd squeezes every note he can into his lead solos, sometimes running over himself, to get to the next bar; he's a showman, determined to convince us he can do it all in one song ... On The Traveler Kenny Wayne Shepherd delivers a tempestuous collection of road-tested tunes that illustrate his ceaseless drive to discover and follow new sounds".
