Quotes
BBC 
Rarely does a record this good come straight outta Nashville. The Ballclub plays with real verve and lightness of touch, and Burch himself sings like an angel, albeit an angel wearing a Stetson. As well as the Jimmie Rodgers influence, several of Burch's songs - particularly the perfectly-honed "Isolda" - are on at least first-name terms with some Sad-Eyed Ladies of the Lowlands and Girls from the North Country. No bad thing. But I doubt if anybody, Dylan included, has written a more quietly beautiful song than "Willpower" in the last few years.
