    There's nothing fake about the purgatorial narrative of songs such as "Nobody Knows My Trouble" and "My Diamond Is Too Rough." [Feb 2015, p.74]

    He hasn’t run from success as much as escaped its grip to release music that’s honest, raw and comes straight from the heart.

    Fear and Saturday Night is a smaller-scale album than 2012's Tomorrowland and it's lighter, too, finding the Americana singer/songwriter settling into a comfortable ragged groove.

    The L.A.-based songwriter's fifth LP finds him focused solidly in the present. Fear still mines enough scarred grit to match Bingham's distinctive rasp.

    While the material heads nowhere new, there's a good feeling to all that's happening. [Mar 2015, p.99]

    He's less convincing when he rocks, but he understands both depth and beauty. [Mar 2015, p.104]
