The first full length release from Rock Sugar is a total treat…if you want something that can make you lauugh, rock out and gaze questioningly at your speakers while you wonder what theyve done this time, then youll want to pick this thing up right quick. – Pollstar
When they took the stage, it was a case of men and boys compared to what had gone before. Wow! Now Ive seen some things by some bands in my time, but this was a masterstroke…I think I can safely say that this was one of the best performances at a Firefest ever.—Powerplay Magazine
This band played an absolutely storming set, had great fun in doing so, and got the crowd eating out of their hands.—Fireworks Magazine
