“Where Carey’s [debut CD] undefined psycho-chromatic G.R.I.D. (reviewed in Bass Guitar Magazine, July ’06) was engagingly experimental, this is more on the singer/songwriter tip. Which may make the bass playing more functional than daring, but it’s no less solid--- particularly the playful funk line supplied to 'So Bold' and the pop reggae of 'Silly Me'.”
***Bass Guitar Magazine
“Smooth rocker with nice vocals and guitar work with original music. Good candidate for air play on appropriate radio. Featuring Oz Noy, Dave Eggar, Rachelle Garniez, Matt Munisteri, Fiona McBain, Chris Carrol, Jack Devine and Brenda Bufalino.”
