"I found Michael Z. Cummings' music leaving me wanting more! The lyrics, vocals & his command of the instruments are evident on every tune. His vocals & storytelling are without a doubt as good as Dylan if not better. I especially enjoy Sexy Lips & Shapely Hips, the sexy finger pickin' beginning, the haunting bridge and the lyrics are a must hear. I'm anxious to hear more from this wonderful artist. "

"With this album, Cummings takes his rightful place among other respected stylized storytellers such as Dylan, Young, and Reed. Michael possesses an amazing ability to focus on the essentials, he performs with a laid back intensity that truly brings his characters and tales to life with depth, compassion and understanding."

"As I was getting ready to go home from my studio, I popped this CD a friend had sent me in my Vette – the song started – and I just sat there. WOW I thought – Bob Dylan re-born – except maybe better! I really mean that. I had heard about this up and coming singer/songwriter named Michael Cummings – but up until this moment – I had not heard his music. His laid back vocals and slow –sliding acoustic fingerpicking literally kept me from driving off. I just sat there listening, and I think it was the first time out of my whole wild and busy day – that I actually relaxed. Clean, pure and simple acoustic songs. How cool I thought! I finally did make it home – but didn’t get out of the car until I finished the entire CD. The person that sent me Michael’s CD told me that I would like it. He was wrong – I LOVED IT!!"

“Cummings brings the music to life with a subtle story telling proficiency we haven’t heard in a very long time. Turn it on, tune it in and get lost in the pleasant journey through Cummings’ nirvana!"
