"A stunning and magical record that takes us right back to the very roots...Listen and hear the story that each song communicates and you will be transported...An exceptional album by an exceptional performer." --Maverick Magazine, UK, July 2010"As deep into the folk tradition as you can get . . . dyed in the wool contemporary folkies that think the Amish are too plugged in will get off on this big time." --Midwest Record"Eriksen's voice is a powerful instrument in its own right . . . the wonderment of the narratives and the ability of the voice to cut to the emotional quick take hold." --Valley Advocate, Northampton, MA"In the domain of traditional ballad singing, Tim Eriksen wields astonishing power, with a voice full of deep, emotive qualities, a well-worn character and effortless fluidity. . . . He sounds like he's 250 years old - a compliment in traditional ballad singing - but his singing has an immediacy that grabs listeners and compels them to share in the moment of performance." --Mountain Xpress, Asheville, NC
