"‘Safe is a cleverly and wittily written piece of alternative pop perfection. It is a pleasantly paced and constructed piece of indie rock with a jangly romanticism. Another piece of music written and recorded in Georgia, this really showcases the depth of that particular local scene."

"Plaid on Plaid" - this is some deeply important music. I love Kenny Tompkins' sensibilities and sonic cohesiveness. Beyond impressive. Some of the best humored, pleasing modern pop. Marble Soup
It's hard to beat Slow Parade's conceptual footing in the experimental country rock scene. The musicality and taste of this particular line up is very refined and well represented here. Marble Soup
