Ten Word Reviews

Two Paper Squares - Long Way To Go
So delicate. This song is exactly what it should be.

Ken Yates - Surviving Is Easy
Really cool structure here with the lyrical hook. Tight playing.

Sam Lynch - All the Life
Tender, sensitive vocal performance. Huge fan of the production here.

Kris Ulrich - Boomerang
Fabulous lyrical hook. Super tasteful and groovy guitar work throughout.

Willem James Cowan - Content
Vocals are so nonchalant - it keeps on growing on me.

Austin Manuel - Storyteller
Delightfully muted, like an autumn walk on your favourite trail.

Skinny Dyck - Hey Who's Counting?
Rock solid rhythm section anchors this one. Quality twangy Canadiana.

Wes Collins - The Wires
Nice surprises in this one. Soulful, genre-bending vocal topline.
