"They are a stomping band!"

Aaron Kent – Writer for The Cornish Guardian

"Pop runs through Blue River's new single Watergate Bay

Watergate Bay seems to be the biggest

step forward for them yet, especially after Kernow King tweeted about it"

David White – BBC Radio Cornwall presenter

"They have some great videos on their Youtube channel!" "Doing some great stuff at the minute"

"Anyday Tomorrow has heart, soul and a quality of professionalism that makes me wonder why the band haven't hit the big time yet. Critically speaking, it's not an album that tackles any heavy subject matters or emotions, but it is very listenable and I can foresee the band having a shiny future in the mainstream indie music scene."

Lee Trewhela – Writer for West Brition and The Cornishman

"there is enough originality and downright youthful enthusiasm here to make Blue River ones to watch. Highlights include Angel's Lane (She Don't Know) which has the same everyman, anthemic quality as first album Stone Roses and R U Getting Enough? which is elephant-sized and wouldn't sound out of place filling any arena. Perfect album closer X Marks The Spot has the sort of classic, crystalline guitar line you're sure must have been written before. That is hasn't is credit to Blue River's burgeoning songwriting power. "

Richard Searby-Bates – Writer for The West Briton

"They are young, cool as you like, and have done their homework. If a band is a collective sum total of their inspirations, then Blue River walk the walk. Instantly you know they would be selling records by the thousands if they had hit stores circa 1997.

But this doesn't mean they are outdated. The Camborne band are writing classic rock anthems with a very British twang and are proud of it. "

"Watergate Bay, an example of the ever-developing Blue River sound and it has caused quite a response with the band's following. The rest of the album promises more pop-rock tunes and much bigger musical numbers, incorporating new instruments and techniques. This album follows the success of Blue River's last EP, X Marks The Spot – a rhythm-fuelled collage of catchy tunes. Dripping in Brit-Pop influences and Artic Monkeys style lyrics, all four songs deserve their place and there is nothing filler about any of them."
