"Great CD, sort of sounds like Ben Harper, but more acoustic. Peter has a distinctive voice, you'll love it or hate it. The CD has a lot to like: good grooves, energy, deep lyrics, it rocks, moves my body & mind. Pete's web site is kewl too, goto Easternfront.com"

"This was my intro to Peter Mulvey and, in my opinion, his best effort (though I like parts of all his CDs). This disc is more "electric" than most of his others, which to me gives it a lot more (dare I say it) diversity than most folk fare. I really like the "harder" cuts like "Smoke" and "Deep Blue" mixed in with the softer songs on the disc. I keep hoping he'll put more of this kind of music on future releases, but so far I've been mostly disappointed (though the later CDs have strong songwriting too). Hey Peter, quit obsessing about who "the audience" is and shake it up again."
Fabulous

"I've loved Peter's work since his first solo record came out in the early 90s. "Deep Blue" shows a songwriter's growth. The man can play a mean guitar, write a poetic lyric, and sing in a low, sexy tone that makes you want to listen over and over."
He's done it again, but even better this time!

"From his very first album, Peter Mulvey has been able to convey every feeling in his body to his audience with varying degrees of subtlety. Deep Blue is the best of the best, combining emotional honesty and maturity of both songwriting and performance. Included are some older tunes revamped to reflect the changes time has wrought in the artist. While darker than his other works, this record is nonetheless thought provoking, hard rocking, and alltogether great music."
