"The Stormy Seas play pretty agressive traditional Scottish folk music. And they play it really well. ... a thoroughly rousing and enjoyable start to the night. And the interplay of the vocals – I’ve just been raving about My Latest Novel and how they do it – well the 2 vocals are an essential ingredient to this bands set up. Definitely ones to watch this year." - The Steinberg Principle
"Anyone who is a fan of Edinburgh's Broken Records would no doubt enjoy what The Stormy Seas are doing. It's that whole Celtic folk-rock thing - accordion, fiddle, guitar, banjo, accordion etc - which will probably also appeal to fans of Eighties pop stars such as The Waterboys and Dexy's Midnight Runners as much as the Arcade Fire and the whole 'nu folk' brigade. The Stormy Seas have not been on the go for long at all but there are already a couple of stand-outs in their set: Untamed Heart and Morbid Desires. The imbue their set with a large keg of gallic passion and would sit comfortably alongside other acts at festivals such as Wickerman and Belladrum. " - Limbo
