InfluencesHUSKER DU and NINA SIMONE
Sounds LikeWeibren Rijkeboer NETHERLANDS ALT-COUNTRY MUSIC
"...They don't take a second seat to any artist with the Replacements-esque 'Woodstock, Ont.' "

Andy Riggs AMERICANA UK gives 'Signal the Sun' *9 of 10 stars -
"...The boys influences range from such stellar performers as Elvis Costello, Bob Dylan, The Band and the great Paul Westerberg...
The quality of the songs and playing never falters over the 40 plus minutes. The penultimate track 'Last Call In The North East', with it's haunting harmonica, guitar and lyrics clearly show that these brothers have the talent to make their mark. Overall a very impressive record."

John Sakamoto of THE TORONTO STAR
"'Beautiful is Never Alone' ... this exquisite ballad by Toronto brothers Bryce and Brad Clifford is graced with scarred barroom vocals from the Steve Forbert/Marah school of croak-singing and an aching sax solo that seems well-acquainted enough with the Stones 'Waiting on a Friend' to qualify as something of a homage."

Freddy Celis ROOTSTIME BELGIUM
" ... There is a fast learning curve here, each attempt to really describe the music here comes down to cliche ... From the lead off track, Cliffords music evolves somewhere between the guitar rock of the Replacements to the restrained Americana la Marah. With jewels like 'Last Call in the Northeast' and 'Woodstock, Ont.' they demonstrate many talents. You must hear Clifford! ...great potential in 'Signal The Sun' ".

   About Bryce Clifford and The Co.
Austin based rock outfit, fronted by Canadian songwriter Bryce Clifford. Reviewers unanimously cite influences of the Band, Van Morrison & Marah, while 2009's live studio recording "Hail Tapes" further captures a raucous post-punk energy, akin to The Replacements and Elvis Costello.

Dude, the "live in Grub's house" version of Country Star came on my iTunes today. The one with you, me, Jeremy, Doug, Grub, and countless others playing on it. It actually was pretty kick-ass. That should at least be a hidden track on your next record.
