    Barchords is an enormously likeable set of songs... ranks as one of the most refreshingly direct and enjoyable albums of the year so far.
  2. The Guardian
    May 3, 2012
    80
    These are simple, blissful songs which offer more with every listen.
  3. The Observer (UK)
    May 7, 2012

    His British debut is a gem: a warm, sun-dappled record with an appealing snag of heartache.
