What people are saying about Singer / Songwriter Spud Davenport...

Great stuff... (he's) kind of a Randy Newman for the younger set.

Re: Song "Senseless Act of Kindness"... Superb songwriting makes this one of the very best songs on GarageBand.com and I mean this sincerely. I wish I had written it myself! Bravo! This one is radio play ready.

Re: Song "Time Bomb Mom": The song is great, the vocals are superb and unique yet have that professionalism known to such greats as Elvis Costello and Tom Petty. Everything about this is pro all the way. ...BuddyLucas, GarageBand.com

"The album is filled with songs that not only sound like old favorites on the first listen but, like all of the greatest songs, once you hear them a 4th or 5th time you start really listening to the words and think, 'That's brilliant.' " ...Charlie Recksieck, the BigFellas
