"Led by Bobbo Byrnes' sizzling guitar, the Fallen Stars prove themselves with their stellar country roots rock. With a tight rhythm section backing him, Byrnes unreels hot licks with a thick tone, laying down an album of originals that are catchy and cool."
~Vintage Guitar Player Magazine
"Two singers lead this ultra-tight group...what really comes through on these recordings is that this road-tested unit have performance chops to the max."
~ Music Connection Magazine
"Ultimately, in their performances, appreciation for classic rock as much as classic country and at times their sense of an America where lights are burning dimly in the midst of cold emptiness, the Fallen Stars at their best here...If the Byrnes' can bring a little of that majesty to local stages in their particular way -- and they do -- then it's all to the good."
