Album Reviews:

RobsRawMusic: The songs run beautifully and Phil knows how to paint a song. Each painting is delicately produced in a simplistic, yet gorgeous tone.

Blabber ‘n’ Smoke: 
For the most part, Songs From The Back Room is a very laid back affair. Guitars glisten and pedal steel does indeed swoon, but the primary focus is on Hooley’s well-grained voice which is like a finely aged malt whisky.
