    The comforts A Few Stars Apart offer may not be original, but part of their power lies in their familiarity: it's the sound of tradition moving forward through the bad times and into the good ones.

    The music comes across as honest, emotional, credible and convincing. ... A Few Stars Apart brings him closer to the singular distinction he so decidedly deserves.

    A deep, meaningful and purposefully intimate rock ‘n’ roll record. But what sets this apart from the other LN&POTR albums is that is doesn’t borrow from the past so much as showcase their own strain of cosmic heartland rock.

    A Few Stars Apart by Lukas Nelson and Promise of the Real is further evidence that Nelson is a musical chameleon.

    Nelson's paeans to familial bonds form a loose song cycle that frequently surprises and is capable of effortlessly lifting the listener's spirits. [Sep 2021, p.29]
