"...the songs of John Train swell like an accidental fat-lip-sorta painful,sorta funny and a metaphor,really,for everything to do with https://www.tradebit.com group''s second record,Looks Like Up(Record Cellar) ...both ups the ante of Houlon''s songwriting and expands the group''s sonic palate...It''s a little bit Tom T. Hall and a whole lotta John Prine."

Philadelphia Weekly

Jon Houlon lyrically inflicts up his razor sharp wit through and through with the balance of the CD being held together by the tight unit of Brenner,Demarest,Tucker,and Fergusson sculpting for the listener a virtual twang-grass soundscape."
