“David Cale is an enthralling writer-monologist.”
– Stephen Holden, The New York Times
“Matthew Dean Marsh is a find.”
– Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune
“The choruses of Cale and Marsh’s songs have been pared down resulting in amazingly perfect, complex and beautiful strains, some of which have the romantic affect of classic standards from the likes of Gershwin, Porter and Berlin.”
– PerformINK, Chicago
