"The Gathering Field is one of those unique bands that keeps getting better and better. Having just seen them live in Arlington, VA, I can say that "Reliance" plays even better live than it does out of your CD player, which is pretty hard to believe. "Put the Record On", "Alcatraz", "Comlicated Me", and "Right Where You Want Me" are just a few examples of Bill Deasy's underrated songwriting and Dave Brown's strong guitar. Buy this album...you won't regret it"
An Amazing CD!

"A fantastic follow-up to "Lost in America," "Reliance" again makes me wonder why this band is not huge on a national level. The songwriting is unparalleled, and GF boasts great musicianship as well. Songs like "My Serenity" and "I Believe in God for You" highlight this CD, but each song is amazing in itself. This is also a great live band - check them out if you have a chance!"
Put this CD in your car and drive!!

"This is an album that you want to put in your car's CD player and turn up. Bill Deasy's lush vocals and poetic lyrics are rythmically awe inspiring. Equally inspiring is the complex lead guitar work, that crys out for open air. My friends and I agree that "right where you want me" is the sexiest song on the record and could definitely make your girl weak in the knees. I highly recommend the albulm. These guys are like sister hazel, matchbox 20 or the wallflowers. But they are just far far better musicans."
What a pleasant Surprize!

"This CD was a recommendation from Amazon.com since I usually listen to similar stuff. I listened to a few clips and became intrigued. I ordered it and I wasnt dissapointed. These guys are good enough to be signed by a major label. There are several teriffic tracks on this C.D. and if you like Vertical Horizon, James Taylor, or Jackson Browne, you will really like The Gathering Field, Sure they are a little rough around the edges but with a little P.R. and expertise that a major label would bring, I believe they could make it big nationally."
