Praise for Kasey Anderson

"[Anderson] is equally at home with introspective ballads as he is with political dirges..." The Onion A.V. Club
"[Anderson] is one to watch in the alt.country scene." Punk Planet

"The Reckoning is a masterpiece." Tone
"Anderson’s ability to write masterful songs of political, romantic, and carefree impressional tones is a skill that remains difficult to rival." Obscure Sound
"[The Reckoning] is a must-hear...it's full of crackle and buzz..." The Albany Times Union
"The Reckoning is - quite simply - stunning." The Portland Tribune
"[The Reckoning is] an album of rare organic beauty..." The Cascadia Weekly
