"Kick ass rock n'soul, that breathes life and fire, and conjures angels and devils into the same room."
-Ayo- (102.1 the Edge dj, and DFW "Quick" news journalist)
"The New Serenade: A fearsomely talented Fort Worth quartet that gets sticky-sweet soul all over its agreeable pop-rock to fantastic effect. These nine tracks are steeped in a variety of sounds, and the fellas wisely shy away from leaning too heavily on any one influence."
-Preston Jones- (Fort Worth Star Telegram)
"You’ll be endlessly scanning club listings for any show of theirs within 50 miles of Fort Worth once you’ve spun the octet’s new EP, Better Days... these five tracks leave you flattened in less than 20 minutes, aching for more of the outfit’s sweaty, soulful sound... marvel at his delivery as it swings from tender to testifying in the span of a moment..."
-Preston Jones- (Fort Worth Star Telegram)
"...a band work so well together that it makes you think they could have been seperated from birth you know you're on to something good."
-Soundsuck-
"The band walks a fine line between sounding polished and raw, lending the tuneage an impressive, unique quality."
-The Fort Worth Weekly-
