"This is an eclectic mix of acoustinc jazz, if there ever were a genre.
Gabriel James is a Minneapolis singer-songwriter who brings a Midwest
flavor to the crowded singer-songwriter realm. I suppose you could call
him a male Ani DiFranco...His songwriting depicts attittude and edge.
You won't get any Mayeresque tracks here...He's got the guitar antics
of Ari Hest ala "Consistency" here and through many of the tracks. A
refreshing listen. Rating: 4 stars."
-- Discovering Artists
"Gabriel James puts his music first and lets everything else fall into
place. 'Music that speaks to the soul' -- I can go along with that. If
you dig your music on the acoustic side with a bit of jazz flavor, then
you need to help yourself to a taste of Gabriel James."
--Ear Candy Magazine
"Gabriel James' music is jazzy pop rock at its very finest. he juggles
between melodies like a circus clown, rediculously throwing catchy
hooks at you like he's got a billion more where that one came from. His
songwriting abilities to be sure are brilliant, but it's his voice
that's going to attract most singer-songwriters to attempt to copy his
style. Beautiful; get this now."
-- J-Sin, Smother.net
"...Gabriel's songs succeed for many of the same reasons Ani
DiFranco's do: They're confessional, intelligent tunes propelled by a
slightly off-beat, funkified delivery..."
-- The Onion
"Tightly packed with extravagant arrangements and excellent playing.
Highest caliber of talent and musicianship."
-- Mary Rudy, Music Reviewz
"...Gabriel combines his mesmerizing style, catchy hooks and a sense of
humor to create a must-hear for fans of Ben Harper, Death Cab and Ani
DiFranco."
