First Reviews Coming In For Water To Wine

Recently, I hired Kim Fowler’s, Two Dog Media, out of Nashville to handle publicity for the April 7th release of Water To Wine and the upcoming tour to follow. A couple of weeks ago, Kim sent out the first wave of kits to folks all around the world and we are beginning to see the first reviews begin to trickle in.

Here’s a quickie from Austin Daze writer, McRiprock who has an unusual gauge for listening to and reviewing music. He calls it his Lonestar Sixpack Project and describes the process saying he will, “give you my honest opinion… rated by how many beers I put back if I like your tracks enough to keep them playing loud enough to annoy my neighbors.”

So it sounds like the record did pretty darn good!

Nakia–Water to Wine– Nakia got a nod from Sharon Jones at this past year’s ACL by pulling him onstage for an impromptu duet. An Austin local, Nakia produces an album that is southernly delicious and joyous accompanied by his back-up band The Southern Cousins and his back-up singers The Fresh Up Girls. He echoes a soulful voice that is deep into American roots music and Water to Wine is fully potent of this sound. 5.5 McRiprock’s
