    This album just grows and grows on me, despite being pretty immediate on first listen. So many hooks and melodies that fleetingly come and go but stay with you and keep you coming back for more. Great production, great variety, great tunes. Probably just trumps Money Minds.....

    Through it all, Mason's distinctive voice -- a hushed croon belying a hidden depth of thunder -- give his narratives gravitas and the album's production, a joint effort with London's Tev'n, builds an exciting world to match it. It's another solid effort from one of Scotland's finest.

    Brothers & Sisters sees him build on these long established musical interests but, importantly, also add new elements to the mix to deliver a compelling listen. It comes out of the blocks impressively quickly, with each track building on the former to create a formidable initial run. ... In terms of musical statements it’s hard not to see it as his most vivid and vibrant to date.

    All and all, a winning, beats-driven combination of the personal and the universal. [Apr 2023, p.82]
