about

'Beyond Desolate is the best blues release I’ve heard this year; devastatingly sincere, and, thanks to its evocation of church music and Scottish folk, also entirely unique.' - Joe Barton, The Skinny

'The sparse beautiful bleakness of the songs work their way inside you. They may not be from the Delta, but, my goodness, they owe every gut-wrenching bit of sadness to that area. Beyond Desolate is a brilliant debut album.' - Blues Matters Magazine

'Subtle, lingering guitar & a voice like Jeff Buckley on downers, as delicate as a person’s self-image. ‘Beyond Desolate’ is an album that appears so simple and is yet so compelling, affecting, and most of all charming – it takes real talent and confidence in one so young, to so exquisitely express that most profound of all truths; less is more’ - Blues in Britain

'The singing is reminiscent of early John Martyn and the guitar playing is clear sounding, attractive and imaginative. Having often reflected on the paucity of the Scottish Blues Scene, here is someone might help revitalise things north of the border – this is one artist to watch' -
Blues & Rhythm Magazine
