New Reservoir Review
"...With lovely acoustic strumming and haunting melody, the Bells of St Cuthbert is a definite standout, segueing into soothing Gone by 2040 ocean waves. A very strong debut record to say the least, and with a follow up promised for later this year, this writer suspects Dan Kosub will provide a batch of brand new songs... to colour all seasons..."
- Lisa McDonald, Lipstik Indie Reviews. Continued Here.
