"Ghostwriter seems to genuinely transcend the limits of one-man-band-ism by serving up raw, real C & W that sounds like Chet Atkins' classy crossover strings production never hit Nashville, and the brawling, sprawling nature of surly Southern musicians was allowed to stay pure." - Roktober (Chicago, IL.)_____________________________________________________________________"With scroungy one-man-band blues-punk pilfering, Ghostwriter comes round the bend like a hillbilly Tom Waits stompin’ and hollering “Blue Eyed Girl” with phlegmy finesse. Sure, his ragged, bottom-hollow voice doesn’t paint any daisies, but his overall grit and panache ensure that you’ll listen hard, not lounge, and maybe knock some spoons on your skinny kneecap." - Left Of The Dial (Texas)_____________________________________________________________________"Ghostwriter, takes the attitude of punk, the beer-soaked grime of classic honky-tonk country, and the isolation of the Oregon woods and constructs an intriguing collection of heartfelt Americana. Wreck The City/Simplify Your Life is a record with banjo, slide guitar, and fiddles with an intimacy that sounds as if Schecter is sitting in room with you." - Jersey Beat (NJ)
