"...with his rich baritone, Sellar himself brings a darkness to the stage that has shades of the Velvet Underground at their peak."
"an incredibly promising young talent."
LIMBO
"My Cousin I Bid You Farewell have a strange, magnetic charm that makes us extremely excited indeed. Singer Jonathan Sellar has a voice that is unmistakably and uniquely his own."
THE POP COP
"My Cousin I Bid You Farewell have successfully negotiated the tightrope of making credible pop music. Somehow the band have constructed remarkable songs which are in equal parts catchy and haunting."
RE-UNION GCUSA
"‘The Contented Hearts’, ‘What We Are Eating Tonight’, ‘Neverland’ and ‘Style And Grace’ are all faultless. They show courage, sinuous talent and above all honest emotion."
PodcART
"They hit that elusive note of sadness and stay there in a sustained dream. The voice is in the comfort zone but threatens epic. A weighty album is hiding in this gentle clamour."

Thanks for acceptage of addage. Hope you are all well. What are you up to at the moment? We are in the process of putting together some rough home recordings to help us pick which ones to record as an ep. Would be great if you have a chance to listen to them and let us know what you think. Just remember they are DIY bedroom recordings though!!!;oD We just thought we would fire them up anyway.
