Pittsburgh City Paper
The feel of the record is spot-on: A couple tracks could pass for lost Townes Van Zandt songs. (Margaret Welsh)

SEATTLE WEEKLY
Acoustic Americana that's at its best when the mandolin and pedal steel have kicked in. Bavas' songs are solid...DAVE LAKE

Boise Weekly
All the songs on the CD have a timeless quality. They could just as easily have been sung by Woody Guthrie, Jimmy Rogers, Hank Williams Sr. or Johnny Cash. But even though those master storytellers may be gone, Bavas is still singing their songs ... songs of love, death and trains. -Curt Nichols

Hybrid magazine
“Very down, indie alt-country… dark vocals and beautiful guitars on precise and hearty songs. Excellent.” -Sterling
