"don't know your name, not yet at least but I'm smiling..."
Once again Texas bred, Boston based Texas Critter, the latest solo incarnation of singer-songwriter Evan Taylor waxes poetic on a beautiful folk indie pop creation called "Ace In The Hand". Evan possesses a warm intimate voice and the ability to couch his angst and somber reflections about the stuff of youth, of life, love, loss and finding yourself in an easy way. The song percolates on acoustic guitar with dreamy ethereal electric guitar embellishments. Evan's guitar shapes this time around pushes into avant folk tones, slight jazz dips and dissonant places that create lovely tensions.
Supremely engaging and as someone who has lent his talents to other past incarnations / collaborations (Frogger, Proxy War and Last Violets with Vincent Paz), Evan's songs cut through and I get the feeling that there will always be a somber core to his work even if the songs are not necessarily melancholy. As his trajectory rises I hope he never succumbs to a writing factory and stays true.

The forlorn shit kicker melancholia of SOSOS by Texas bred, Boston based Texas Critter, the latest solo incarnation of singer-songwriter Evan Taylor (who also his talented tentacles in Frogger, Proxy War and Last Violets with Vincent Paz) is, well, goddamn beautiful. The sparse arrangement, the somber sway, wallowing bass tones, sparkling lead guitar adorations, the sort of organic beat and. most especially, Evan's gorgeously sad, even depressive vocal countenance cuts right through your flesh, rib cage and directly into your heart. — American Pancake
