Great new sound on Mudd's debut CD
David Thurston | West Hartford, CT | 12/09/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Jonathan Mudd has got a great sound on his debut CD. One will hear echoes of REM, the Pretenders, Marshall Crenshaw, but Mudd produces something entirely original. His guitar work is sweet and clean. His lyrics are at once thoughtful, insightful, and catchy. The musicians he pulled together blend seamlessly. No doubt "Perfect Day" (as well as "Outside Looking In" and several others) could make it as singles if they get a chance. Treat yourself to this CD."
A Reawakening
Richard Dressner | 12/30/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Cynicism is a way of life for a fifty-something with failing hearing. Somewhere, sometime, somebody has already done it all anyway.



Mudd gives the lie to all of that. Strings that are at once crisp and mellow, with vocals so honest, he could be singing to himself...but he doesn't mind if you listen in.



The surrounding musicians don't sound like structural support, but are integral to the message; the message that Mudd is more than worth paying attention to, he's a perceptive student of humanity, with a unique and enjoyable voice. It's a reason to get excited about music again.
