“They’ve been kicking around California’s Southland for some time now, but with the release of “Feel Free To Do So,” and the strength of the lead track, “True Believer,” The High Lonesome are picking up friends and supporters wherever they turn. Loaded with straight ahead rockin’ pop with a touch of rootsiness thrown in, tunes like “Pauline,” “Lone Star,” and the wonderful harmonies of “Black & Blue” make this disc very appealing.”

“...wins my DISCovery award for this issue...Ragged but right. Sparse, alterna-country production and yelping, caught-up-in-emotion vocal...a real, live band, pumped up and roaring in the heart of the night. Go, boys.”

“...custom-made for cranking at peak volume while cruisin’ down the highway with your best buddies. Singer Larry Poindexter infuses the song with an urgent, engaging blend of romantic idealism and antsy wanderlust...For those who care, the band’s lineup includes popular “General Hospital” actor Jon Lindstrom on drums, but this one could easily be sold without exploiting that information.”
