Every so often an artist delivers a record that makes me stand up and salute! Jeff Tuohys 'Breaking Down The Silence' is one of those records.
-Mark Radway, Triplearadio.com
"An arresting voice...("Breaking Down the Silence") is with me wherever I go. It's an addictive listen that I strongly recommend. In fact, you should probably buy two copies..."
-Pat Keating, Insite Magazine
"Jeff Tuohy's debut album is well polished as they come...it sounds amazing. Each instrument, perfectly tuned with tones matching tasteful and quilted into an elaborate rich fabric of sound..."
-What's Up! (Boston)
"As the former front man for the college rock outfit 28 and Waiting, Jeff Tuohy offers warm pop versatility with his debut album Breaking Down the Silence. The debut, produced by Aaron Katz (Percy Hill), surfaces with the radio pop of Jason Mraz mingled with the more introspective songwriting of Mason Jennings. And though the album feels more suitable for top 40 playlists than hip singer-songwriter coffee shop, there is still a serving for everyone.
From the ringing guitars of the opener Unaware, its obvious that Tuohy has a knack for pop, driven home with his emotional vocals. Knock On Wood is a dead on ringer for a radio hit with its undeniable chorus, while Serenade lets Tuohys white soul melt... when Tuohy scrapes his soft side for the more aggressive attack of Silence of the Spirit or his humorous discord for Brandy and hangovers on Brandy, his voice truly shines. As he sings, The World was built on chances/so I guess I should chance mine, it appears Tuohy as made a good leap of faith with Breaking Down the Silence."
- Shane Handler, Glide Magazine
"In a genre where music has all but gone stale, Jeff Tuohy has released a heartfelt compilation of true rock music...Keep an eye out because this new artist is bound to make his mark on the music scene."
- CDBaby.com
"...The songs are diverse and his style is original...very pop-driven, but it has elements of other styles, like classic rock and blues. His voice is good; actually, as the album progressed, I found his voice to be more and more appealing...
Overall, this is a solid album and Im looking forward to more from Jeff Tuohy."
