"The Burning Leaves are Indie Mae and Craig Lee-Williams, creators of homegrown, beautifully put together folk music. Evoking emotions is what it's all about from dark forboding to an almost delicate as china, haunting melancholy that chills the spine and transfixes the mind with it's rich and enduring sound." - Bestival 2008
"The Burning Leaves are a British duo very closely attached to the music they make. So close that it gives their songs a dark slumber that somehow manages to remain both enticing and gripping" - The Independent (UK)
"I was passed some demos by a band called The Burning Leaves about a year ago and after listening once, I knew straight away that they had to play a part in the film in some way." - Glendyn Ivin (Director of the film "LAST RIDE")
"One of my favourite kind of folky bands at the moment. Definitely brilliant storytellers, excellent musicians and sounding rather nice on the radio there..." - Rob da Bank (BBC Radio One)
"The Burning Leaves make haunting, melancholic vignettes that sound like they might break if you listen to them too loud."- The Fly Magazine
"Transfixing and spooky, haunting in a facinating kind of way that grabs the listeners attention" - The Independent (Malta)
"Dark moody songs, that are both haunting and beautiful" - Malta Today
