โ€œThe new record is a delightful collection of songs in a variety of styles, but all basically rock โ€˜nโ€™ roll and all informed by Bradshawโ€™s storytelling style. โ€œSongs on the Radioโ€ is a dazzling ode to tunes we grew up with, framed by an expansive 1970s-style arrangement.ย  But โ€œDreamโ€ is a laidback reverie, melding swing and twang expertly. The country-soul ballad โ€œGoneโ€ accentuates the tale of lost love with keening sounds on the Resophonic steel guitar",ย ๐‘ฑ๐’‚๐’šย ๐‘ด๐’Š๐’๐’๐’†๐’“,ย ๐‘ท๐’‚๐’•๐’“๐’Š๐’๐’•๐‘ณ๐’†๐’…๐’ˆ๐’†๐’“ย ย

โ€œThis is a record that clicks right away. Whether the songs are quiet and introspective, or brash and bold rockers, they hold together as a single expression, and reflect a well honed creative craftโ€ฆโ€ย ย ๐‘ซ๐’Š๐’”๐’„๐’Š๐’‘๐’๐’†๐’”ย ๐‘ถ๐’‡๐‘บ๐’๐’–๐’๐’….ย ย 

ย โ€œโ€˜Sidewaysโ€™ gets a lift from Argentinian bandoneon player Francisco Martinez Herrera in its twisting tang tale, marked by an interesting couple who โ€œcan only see the world askewโ€ and โ€œAmong the few who prefer always to take a sideways view.โ€ Thereโ€™s a swaying, throbbing waves-at-sea dynamic to โ€œLight of the Moonโ€ and a swirling sense of confusion with a healthy use of echoes for โ€œIn the Dark.โ€ Finally, the Niagara Barrel Ride Blues,โ€ a standout track, is rendered alone by Bradshaw on his resonator guitar, making it the pure lone blues track. Spend some time with these short vignettes and follow his stories as they unfold. That alone can be riveting on one level, add in the emotions conveyed, and the varied musical support and youโ€™re in for a rewarding listenโ€,ย ๐‘ฑ๐’Š๐’Žย ๐‘ฏ๐’š๐’๐’†๐’”,ย ๐‘ฌ๐’๐’Ž๐’๐’“๐’†ย ๐‘ด๐’‚๐’ˆ๐’‚๐’›๐’Š๐’๐’†
