Praise for Joseph J. Jones:

“Artful songwriting that packs a hefty punch, his music has a real sense of depth but is delivered with a romantic edge.” – CLASH

“Jones’ soulfully stunning vocal delivery is the star of the show, etched with a deep growl that’s simply divine” – The 405

“A soulful growl, an intimate piano arrangement – the first few seconds of The Video set the tone for Joseph J. Jones’ magnificent debut single. Sounding like he’s had to deal with a few punches in his life, Joseph combines Hozier’s blues with Sam Smith’s tenderness.” – Disco Naïveté

“A Guy Ritchie character who’s also super poetic and makes beautiful music.”Buzzfeed’s Social Media Editor

“The haunting song is bolstered by the sepia-tinged clip. But the real star is Jones’ soulful growl, which soars over stark piano chords.” – Last.fm
