"...A five-piece that mixes all manners of roots music into its intoxicating organic sound. Blues, folk,
old-time and more exotic rhythms find their way into the band's finely crafted songs, which are colored by
superb instrumental embellishments.... Both CDs offer plenty of quality hook-laden, harmony-laced songs
that have enough quirky and unexpected musical turns to make them stand head and shoulders above
many similar acts." (Mick Skidmore, Relix Sept/Oct 2004)

"I can't think of a more appropriate title for... 'Into the Cactus Plain.' The sound of Diana Andersen's vocals
recall an empty western canyon or an open desert. This music is full of space, but ends up being more full
because of it. Paso Fino has... found the right places for music and silence, a balance that is hard to make." (Derek Schleelein, Ithaca Times)
