“Awesome pop writing and performance. Highly recommended for lovers of great pop. Clever, catchy, full of earworm hooks.” – VarenneProf
“Having been impressed by their ‘Perfect Crime’ single, I was extremely eager to dive into second single ‘Sara Kandi’. Once again it’s a real belter, and another tasty morsel of what to expect from forthcoming album ‘Perfect Crimes’ and it doesn’t disappoint in the slightest. I’ve already listened to this an awful lot of times and once again it’s an addictive slice of pop meets rock. Now you had a blissful sun blushed melody, Porter’s vocal tones were a literal breath of fresh air whilst those story telling lyrics had been perfectly penned.” – TheMusicIsMyRadar.com
