Jun 13, 2013All told, Saltwater's the most refreshing indie pop LP since Sufjan Stevens' Illinois.

UncutMay 28, 2013Rare and enchanting understatement in a brash and gaudy world. [Jun 2013, p.69]

MojoJun 18, 2013For all the grey matter on display, this is a Technicolor record. [Jul 2013, p.94]

Jun 5, 2013Saltwater is an album that is eccentric on its own terms, which is to say off-kilter but charmingly so.

Jun 10, 2013Saltwater is a pretty record and the songs are clearly heavy with personal significance, but it was almost better when they were a little rough around the edges.

May 28, 2013Overall however, listening to Saltwater you realise that, while the album contains nothing seriously off-putting, you grow tired of Brazos’ style when listening to it.

Jun 6, 2013If Brazos can focus on their strengths, they have the potential to make a pleasant, summery mark on pop music.
