Quotes:

· "Carey Ott's sweet vignettes ooze an epic-indieness, like a Rufus Wainwright or Teddy Thompson, just without the family drama, and with vocals reminiscent of a Ron Sexsmith combined with the upbeat indie rock of Brendon Benson. Expect to be winding down your window, singing along to the radio sometime soon." -Uncut Magazine / UK

· "Recommended for audiences who are starved for something fresh yet uncannily comfortable and familiar. The kind of artist whose gifts are seen rarely in any given generation." -Chicago Tribune
· "A driving Oasis appeal with a penchant for Beatles melodic ethic." -American Songwriter Magazine

· "A voice that conjures up an immediate intimacy with incredible pop sensibilities." -eMusic.com
