“Most people recognize John Carey as an in-demand bass player in the New York City area. For John’s second record, he decided to surprise his fans and explore his original singer-songwriter pop songs. In addition to playing bass, you’ll hear John singing and playing acoustic guitar throughout the CD. His music is reminiscent of Sheryl Crow, Sting, Bonnie Raitt and The Steve Miller Band. We give this record four stars and foresee this CD as being a breakthrough recording for him; we wouldn’t be surprised to find a few of these tunes up on the top ten Billboard, no joke.”

“Where Carey’s undefined psycho-chromatic G.R.I.D. (reviewed in July ’06) was engagingly experimental, this is more on the singer/songwriter tip.  Which may make the bass playing more functional than daring, but it’s no less solid--- particularly the playful funk line supplied to So Bold and the pop reggae of Silly Me.”

“Smooth rocker with nice vocals and guitar work with original music. Good candidate for air play on appropriate radio. Featuring Oz Noy, Dave Eggar, Rachelle Garniez, Matt Munisteri, Fiona McBain, Chris Carrol, Jack Devine and Brenda Bufalino.”
