The second Thomas Denver Jonsson album deepened the expression from
the debut. On this cd, the airy folkpop turned into a more electric 
and darker expression, yet still with a revealing hope for the future, 
filled with black dreams and city views. Thomas Denver Jonssonīs backing 
group The September Sunrise delivered the soundcapes of a sleeping town 
with itīs surrounding freedom. This cd features key tracks "Silver Boy" 
featuring Ned Oldham of the Anomoanon, the pleading but upright "Working 
Star" and the confessing lullaby of "Good Night". You will also find the 
laidback rock song "Strange Luck" the embracing, warm duet with Nina Kinert 
in "Dreams at the Film Club" and the dark gospel of "Walther". The two acoustic 
pieces bookending the album, presents and sums up the spirit of this new 
collection of songs. "The darkness is coming closer", still "with patience, 
good things will come". 





"Jonsson seems to have skipped three or four albums worth 
of 'artistic development' to deliver a fully-formed masterpiece."
- Jeremy Searle - Americana UK (UK)




"He's competing with the best"
- Lennart Persson, Expressen (S)




"Jonsson inhabits the same space as South san Gabriel and M Ward /.../ 
A talent overdue for a wider audience"
Rob Hughes - Uncut #105 (UK)


"He has released two albums that carry the same promising vibe as
Bob Dylan's early releases, where you know they're very good but what
really twists your ear is the sense of what's ahead, the possible
masterpieces lurking in his subconscious."
- Dennis Cook, Ebong (US)




"my album of the year"
- Wiebren Rijkeboer, Altcountry NL (NL)
