"[Afterglow is] a lovely but sad song...Achingly beautiful strings create an enchanting backdrop for John’s incredibly vulnerable croons...I could keep gushing about this great little EP" 
  - Jeff Archuleta, EclecticMusicLover

"Sparkling production...the 'faded photograph' sequence exudes a hooky surf-pop harmonizing appeal that builds seamlessly into the initial soulful exterior...[a] melodic earworm and eclectic structural journey of a track."
 - Mike Mineo, Obscure Sound on Mr. Love

"I love everything about [Marry Another Man], so I’m putting it on my song of the year candidates list...classic soft rock energy...heartfelt emotionalism...but there’s a freshness to the composition that definitely makes it feel modern"
 - Greg Jones, EarToTheGroundMusic on Marry Another Man

"You can’t help but draw comparisons to Carole King. There’s a warmth and a smile in [Elise's] voice that is charming and endearing...[and] when the two voices sing together, the song really soars."
  - Send Me Your Ears on Atlanta

And Interviews

I spoke at length with Ben at AudioMirageStudios about the first two songs on the EP, leading to this lovely interview piece. Read it for more of the backstory of these songs (and me).
