"Brian Salcido's impassioned voice and creative songwriting evoke the vocal power and range of Jeff Buckley with the pop music smarts and versatility of Jack Johnson, Sondre Lerche, John Mayer and Chris Martin. Underpinning these many stylistic avenues is the voice of a guy who really cares about what he's saying. His lyrics are identifiably real without being cliche, his songwriting melodically captures his sentiments and leaves it in your head long after the track ends, while his voice hauntingly drives the point home."
