    The presence of the Glorifiers adds an exclamation point as gospel music's past and present are seamlessly united. This is nothing less than essential for fans of American roots music.

    The Mamas are their element, so rich in their trade that they can most likely make a record on the moon and it would shine like the sun. The world needs more of the Como Mamas and their funky gospel offerings.

    The trio deliver devotional, soulful, throat-reddening gospel on Move Upstairs, where the odd rough note only adds to the one-take authenticity. [Jul 2017, p.26]
