“Singing drummers may now be in vogue, but very few combine the masterful musicianship, vivid lyrics and expressive vocals one experiences with Alex Rex. In fact, few musicians have a CV as impressive as band leader Alex Neilson. He’s drummed with some of the most eclectic musicians of the international underground; from Bonnie "Prince" Billy to Shirley Collins, Jandek and Current 93. All on top of a 10-year stint with his own critically acclaimed psych-folk outfit, Trembling Bells.”

“Waldo’s Gift is the result of three like-minded musicians who have been given the time and space to let their sound naturally take shape, allowing them to hone in on a true, sonic representation of themselves, both as individuals and together.”

“'Alternative, left field pop is the chosen playground for Polary and boy, do they know it well. Effortlessly blending heavy, moorish guitars with nostalgia inducing synth work, thus making the perfect backdrop for those bright pop vocals.'”
