plays a unique blend of country , bluegrass, and folk .
"The cascading images of John Train singer Jon Houlon bear the mark of Texas troubadours Butch Hancock and Townes Van https://www.tradebit.com the group''s bluegrass and country-tinged acoustic music...sparkles with clarity."
Dan DeLuca
Philadelphia Inquirer
"With the new ''Angels Turned Thieves'' ,the local semi-acoustic quintet has scared up one of the finest Philly-made alt-country albums in a long while...Thieves is an album that,at first,seems so unassuming as to be https://www.tradebit.com after a few listens,its weirdly sedate world-weariness and reassuring melodicism shyly burrows its way under the skin."
Hobart Rowland
Philadelphia Weekly
"The Philadelphia quintet''s debut is ripe with images that conjure up visions of both a gentler,sepia-toned yesterday and a crueler today...Touching on everything from lost loves and betrayal to the civil war and the media culture,Houlon writes protest songs that use the personal experience to convey a larger message."
Rachel Leibrock
Country Standard Time
"His writing is always thoughtful and evocative...This is an album that can quickly become a welcome friend."
Michael Tearson
Sing Out Magazine
"Jon Houlon has a droll/bleak take on life that''s all his own and a fine tune sense."
