"Capturing the giant magnitude of tiny moments. Shine on you crazy diamond in the rough." --MAGNET
"Mr. Jessee's murmuring, barely-there vocals compliment his bandmates' lulling folk-rock. The album's title track--a tender, piano-driven lament--could ably serve as a soundtrack for any long drive home."--THE NEW YORK TIMES
"Somewhere between the intimacy of Nick Drake and the enveloping warmth of Burt Bacharach's 70's songwriting disciples." --PHILADELPHIA WEEKLY
"Even in Jessee's most introspective moments, the sparkling folk-pop arrangements of Hotel Lights conjure a breezy autumn whimsy."--SPIN
"This tender, atmospheric sophomore effort is a beauty that falls somewhere between the twangier side of Wilco and the impressionist hush of Elliott Smith. With his rustic vocals and layers of instruments, "Firecracker" pops with a pleasing low-key energy and sense of handmade melancholy." --THE BOSTON GLOBE
"The craft of Firecracker People is nothing short of superb." ALL MUSIC GUIDE
"Hotel Lights' songs are deceptively quiet and unassuming, yet have the capacity to steal a way into your soul."--POP MATTERS
Small town waitresses, naked palm readers, walking home in the cold, pay phones and trains. Hotel Lights plays melancholy and beautiful songs about small, human scenes-- spot lit moments enclosed and illuminated.
