“The desperation in their voice builds over a gentle piano, but their faith doesn't waiver.”
“Every single song of theirs is good. Lyrically genius, painfully relatable, play on repeat for 2 hours good.”
“It's easy to feel moved by the tender songwriting…their raspy, gorgeous voice breaking with emotion.”
“Beautifully queer and sincere, and reminiscent of the likes of Conan Gray and Cavetown.”
They “had our full attention from start to finish.”
“Jack paints a surreal picture with their words. It’s easy to imagine, yet impossible at the same time.”
“Intimate vocals and contemplative, confessional and clever lyrics.”
“It feels like Jack really means every word coming out of their mouth.”
“This is a track you will want to play over and over again.”
Their “voice is young, but strong, with a rich androgyny, able to carry emotion with little instrumental backing.”
