Review from 'The Stix' magazine, issue #20, June 2007

"The first thing that strikes me about Chris Gillespie's voice is a certain lilting Australian quality that reminds me of Paul Kelly. Chris Gillespie tells stories of everyday Australian expieriences, unrequited love, dogs and the cockatoo that owns the M2, all delivered with a bit of a country storytelling feel you might associate with Jeff Lang's vibe and an Australian singing accent akin to that of Darren Hanlon or Paul Kelly.

The music is a perfectly relaxed country tinged acoustica, with excellent space created for the suspense and emotion that comes through in the songs. Nice mandolin, slide guitar, harmonica and sparse backing vocals all help to create this space and the sort of feel that many artists could learn from. There is a section in M2 Cockatoo where the listener is placed on hold that is truly amazing. Chris Gillespie sings touching songs that have humour and insight. Well worth a listen, 'Free To Roam' is an excellent EP, can't wait for the full album."
