"Although it is only the second week in January, 'Blue Birds Blood' is almost certainly going to be my record of the year. I'll be very surprised if another comes even close"
PENNNY BLACK MUSIC

"....All these words and I haven't even mentioned 'Dont Ever Die Johnny'...a travesty. Its stark, harrowing lilting makes for a song which is worth a million Coldplays or Snow Patrols, and could conceivably draw tears from St Paul's..Blue Birds Blood is a forgotten box of cobwebbed pop tinder, its songs waiting loyally for the noisy tumble of shrapnel through the rusted guts of old penny slot machines. Get it and treasure it"
DROWNED IN SOUND 9/10

"the lo-fi pop paradise Sawyer offers will rank as a proper candidate for some of the sweetest tunes heard yet this year..the listener is faced with a stunning depth and wistfulness"
URBAN POLLUTION 8.5/10

"This isn't someone who was affected by the music school of marketing. Sawyer is the real deal.. "Don't Ever Die Johnny" will not leave a dry eye in the room. Seriously sad tribute to a legend from a future legend. It doesn't get any better than this." GAZ-ETA

Thanks for the add Mathew.

The album continues to be magnificent, stands up to repeat playing -so- damn well. Hope to finally, eventually, catch you live sometime soon.

Meanwhile, keep being awesome. And I hope you get the chance to have a quick listen to my songs.

Thanks,

dear landlord.

Ahoy Mathew,

I love your sound. It's like a wormhole to Carnaby Street in the 60's with you and Ray Davies having a spot of tea. Brilliant stuff, mate.
