Smashmusic.co.uk Review: Artful Night - Live @ Walpole
"The Troubled took the stage around midnight already pretty wrecked but in the singer, although drunk, they have someone with not necessarily the best voice (think Caleb Followill of Kings of Leon) but he has such an iconic presence.
Musically they're an accomplished brit-rock band of merriment with one of their dads on lead guitar (hey, it worked for the Mystery Jets) and after getting the crowd very pumped up with joyous yelps across the room, the keyboardist takes to the microphone for a very tender moment. Her voice gently floats over the hushed instruments. Its a band that are full of promise, but you wonder whether they'll harness it."
