"I could talk about all of the songs on this album [Seed of a Pine] until the cows come home. Honestly this is one of those...albums which 'had me at hello.' If you're a fan of modern folk and americana, you can't go wrong with Seed of a Pine."

"...quite distinctive...and very enjoyable...The playing and production [on Seed of a Pine] is beautiful, rich and enigmatic like the lyrics...It feels like we’re being drawn into some very serious minded quest, a search for truth and purpose..."

"Together they [Dave & Mandy] have crafted an album that positively brims with excellent songs, fine playing and exquisite vocals."
