    While Bramblett manifests a degree of poignancy on all his records amid rowdy roadhouse rock and R&B, it is a guiding spirit on Pine Needle Fire, shot through with an aching yet grateful heart, abiding empathy, and self-effacing humor. It is exactly the kind of record the 2020s call for.

    Pine Needle Fire slots flawlessly with his established catalog while adding a fresh, somewhat reflective approach; music that could only have been crafted by someone with the experience, class and integrity Bramblett brings to everything he touches.

    Surviving on the present, these songs infer, may be hard. To process this, he uses expansive, hypnotic arrangements: winding guitars, jazzy undertones, sturdy melodies sent into the ether. [Jan 2021, p.23]
