Bravo.’' - Jack Rabid, Tbe Big Takeover magazine "Since forming in 2001, Toronto-based trio The Soles has been earning praise from fans, critics, and fellow musicians" - Adam Morrison (Alan Cross' Exploremusic.com) "A future Rock & Roll classic from The Soles, Broken Ghost" - Jonathan Wesley, East of Midninght Host on CJMQ FM, Quebec "I just love this writing!
