"It comes as a real surprise to find an artist that combines the old and the new in such an innovative way. He uses his voice, beatboxing skills, percussion and looping/effects technology to create a sound that riffs on authentic delta blues while still sounding current and relevant. Leaving aside the jaw-dropping rhythm tracks that underpin his songs, it's the harmonica and the voice that push buttons for me. There are similarities to John Lee Hooker in the semi-spoken delivery of some songs, and I can hear a little of Ben Harper in there sometimes. He is extraordinary; listen to 'Someday Soon', it's hard to believe it's just voice, harmonica and a conga drum ... If you like your blues loud, raw and energetic, you will love this".

"The new collection from maverick bluesman Son Of Dave - that most enigmatic and inspirational purveyor of raw blues fuelled sounds. Sounds which have featured on Breaking Bad, True Blood and a fistful of soundtracks to boot. Back to his signature sound after the diversion of the songwriterly Call Me A Cab record, he's full of the joys of a harp blown storm".
