Album Reviews:
"it’s songs like “Thicker Than Water” that pack an emotional wallop with only acoustic guitar and voice in place. Ordinary Time is full of soulful folk goodness and far from ordinary."
"Ordinary Time was born in an Airstream trailer, rocketing somewhere through the American West like a satellite still longing for the home ground of the South. "
"The album’s lyrics tread unflinchingly over difficulties and thorny patches of regret that ring familiar."
"Ever since alt-country tended to be one of the best kinds of country, this sort of music has provided a good, cozy corner in which to sort through the mess of being human. There’s something about the woolen, mid-heavy bend of a lap steel, perhaps. The record never overdoes the sound either. Phil Madeira’s judicious blend of guitars and accordion, with a little old tube organ thrown in for good measure, creates the perfect backdrop for the acoustic tone. The great comfort of these songs is that, in the midst of overdramatic times, they revel in the beauty of the ordinary. All the little difficulties and glories of normal life are there, painted with the light touch of vignette."

Accolades:
"Their first full length album titled “Ordinary Time” was released in June 2017 following a successful PledgeMusic campaign. Produced by Phil Madeira and Jimmy Abegg (one of Rich Mullins’ ragamuffins by the way), the album is a slice of Americana folk that fans of the genre will enjoy right away."
