Neil’s music and performances have garnered positive reviews for years.


Recording

“Björklund and Rickenbaugh handle the vocals superbly, with gorgeous tight harmonies…  The whole project is impeccably produced and arranged with guitar, piano, whistles and various percussion. An exceptional, all-original debut! Don’t miss it.”

     -Victory Music Review

“Whether you call it folk or acoustic rock, the band makes rhythmic music that works well acoustically or with power added… The vocals of head honcho Neil Bjorklund recall a less lackadaisical James Taylor…  The songs themselves are often heartfelt; a song for a a departed grandmother was particularly moving.”

     -Dirty Linen

“One of the ten best acoustic/folk albums of the year.”

     -Kobi Lucas, Friends and Neighbors, KLCC 89.7 FM

“Neil has a poet’s talent when it comes to songwriting, creating images that linger long after the music ends.”

     -Folk and Acoustic Music Exchange
