“The chorus [of Two Churches and a Bar] has been stuck in head all day. It’s just so damn catchy; if a person is a country music fan, he’ll have it on repeat throughout the day.” – Jenna Melanson – Canadian Beats
“Birds of Prey by Eric Jackson & The Willow River Band leads listeners on a heartfelt journey that passes through the worlds of Folk Rock and Country. Full of simile and vivid imagery, the lyrics cast a somewhat somber mood and look back on loss, identity, and home.” – Zachary Larson – Jango.com
