Reviews
"Autumnal Homecoming has a hushed magical quality, like sitting around a campfire in the wood and watching through the tops of the trees the sparks disappear into the stars.The nagging emotional pull of Darkness and Fire is the sound of resignation made elegiac."
(Evening Echo)

"Every track from the rhythmic ‘NY Cab Ride’ and restless ‘4 Wheel Drive’ to the brooding ‘Mae’s Song’ has a terrific hook but it’s the way Mason switches tempo and moods that makes ALH great fun. " -- Diva Magazine
