'Music as shiny and happy as Paddy Casey's latest is a rarity' - Irish Times
'It's got 'tude and it rocks' - TV Now
'new album is stylistically jumbled, moving from jaunty folk-rock to soul-inflected groovers' - Sunday Times
'...on his new LP (Casey) seeks to coax his inner-soul to the surface...Casey's songs have always testified to his skills as an arranger, featuring parping horns, jazz-inflected drums and even flute solos...' - Irish Independent
