"All 12 tracks have something that makes me want to shout, but right now I'm thinking of the six magical minutes it takes for The Samuel Musical's 'Would You Love Me' to swell like a symphony and then slowly fade away in sound and emotion. It doesn't hurt that the Musical's Sam Allen is the nephew of Lambeth fiddler and Canadian country music hall of famer John P. Allen."

-James Reaney of the London Free Press discussing the Open House Arts Collective's 'OH! Compilation ONE' album. full article


"'OH! Compilation One' finishes strong with The Samuel Musical's six-minute epic "Would You Love Me" and Olenka and the Autumn Lovers' "The Decline"--both tracks, arguably the strongest on the album, bring the compilation to a powerful climax."
---Carly Conway of UWO's The Gazette reviewing the Open House Arts Collective's 'OH! Compilation ONE' album. full article on page 7

Dearest Samuel!

Because I'm coming home along with Sparky and Jess (that's 75 of FCF) we're going to play a couple of shows with a friend we know in Guelph who's going to drum for us.  We're playing a house show in guelph for new years and at Clintons in Toronto on Thursday, January 7th!  You should come and bring everyone with you!

whoa, woodland whispers is 8 and a half minutes of something special
lost in the leaves is great, it sounds like television, in a good way.
