    Bad Weather California has done an excellent job here; each track is filled with energy and positivity that just makes for a fun album.

    From the rock & roll of 'Freaks and Geeks' to the ska-indebted 'I'll Reach Out My Hand', this is unadulterated glee.

    The album is drenched in Hawaiian guitar and wah-wah, making the title perfectly apt. [May 2012, p.67]

    Sunkissed may be an innovative and unique album tonally and texturally, but in the end the songs themselves-that is to say, the words between these bizarre notes-often feel far more rote, delivering an anonymous kind of joy amidst the jagged pleasure of the music.
