"Bursting with creativity, "Hello, good friend." is everything a sophomore set of sing-alongs should be: Exuberant, elegant, and as it's name suggests, a proper introduction for the uninitiated." - Alternative Press
"Chock full of hooks." - Los Angeles Times "I don't remember the last time I heard something as refreshingly different as this new album from The Rocket Summer." - Dallas Morning News "We're not talking simple acoustic solo stuff here, the music Bryce makes as The Rocket Summer is lush, explosively catchy and artful power pop that hints at a new Brian Wilson or Prince in the making. Keep an eye out on this one." - Austin City Limits
