Apr 6, 2020Another powerful record from one of the most profound talents of this generation of us born in the '80s and '90s.
-
Mar 27, 2020Fallon speaks humbly of his work, but Local Honey, containing various other themes of home and love, is his highest achievement to-date.

MojoMar 26, 2020Svelte, mostly acoustic collection is so refreshing. [May 2020, p.94]
-
Mar 26, 2020There's a sense of well-earned intimacy throughout Local Honey, with songs that speak plainly and from the heart about deepening relationships and the life-sustaining love that comes from them. This record is warm, instantly inviting and crackling with life.
-
Mar 26, 2020As well as being excellent, Local Honey is evidence that the man himself is able to adjust his songwriting to his circumstances without compromising in its quality. It all makes for a seriously sweet listen that reaffirms the Jersey boy as a storyteller and songwriter par excellence.
-
Mar 27, 2020Even when Fallon does resort to simply weeping into the sawdust – You Have Stolen My Heart and When You’re Ready – it’s over the sort of gorgeous and poignant love letters to his family that make homeliness feel close to Godliness. Such saccharine succour.

-
Mar 26, 2020Local Honey is an inside record that's better-suited for humid mornings and overcast afternoons than the open highway. In looking stridently inward, Fallon has crafted his most homespun and relatable outing to date.

Rolling StoneApr 8, 2020Sweet, solid collection about fatherhood and quitting cigarettes, sounding like the National. [Apr 2020, p.87]
