Some Reviews of The Wreckers Lantern:

“like the Tindersticks in their early prime, delicately finding the blend between mysterious understatement and thrilling, dramatic electric arrangements” 4/5 All Music www.allmusic.com

“Reminiscent of Joy Division as well as Fairport Convention, the music here is folk of a decidedly dark stripe and Ellen McGee's tantalizing lyrics give the songs a cinematic vividness. The Wrecker's Lantern is an entrancing listen.” Mike Pelusi, Philadelphia City Paper www.citypaper.net

“A truly exquisite introduction to this cooly dreamy outfit; there’s not a weak track here and the deep noir moodcasting aura is never broken. One of the best afterhours soundtracks I’ve heard in awhile, don’t miss this one” Dream Magazine www.dreamgeo.com

“A confident step forward, ‘The Wrecker’s Lantern’ successfully circumnavigates the pitfalls of the “sophomore slump,” while simultaneously delivering one of the years most heartfelt releases” Terrascope Online http://terrascope.co.uk/Reviews

“It’s easy to get lost in Ellen’s voice; aided and abetted by sublime violin, it acts like siren song. Her crew are just as persuasive. The backing they provide is deep, vivid, and full of strange, antique, exotic colors. Saint Joan will probably be referred to as indie-rock by every lazy critic under the sun but as with all truly remarkable bands, it’s a rope to cling to when you have no idea what to do with them.” Stylus Magazine www.stylusmagazine.com

Not too late to get advance tickets for my shows coming up - including two tickets for £5 for my Birmingham gig (3 Nov). And remember I'm playing with Ebb at the ICA in London (9 Nov) - this is a very special performance and it would be great to see you there. /MaJiKer
