“…on Roadhouse Sun the 28-year-old breathes new life into alt-country clichés
through the power of his weathered croon and his stiff-jangle arrangements.”
- Entertainment Weekly
“Keep this guy’s name and his bang-up guitar-driven band front and center.”
- USA Today
“…embellished with a bit more pop and politics, a convincing step beyond his
promisingly earthy 2007 debut.” - SPIN
“…Roadhouse Sun, confirms his stature as an unflinching artist who chronicles
modern circumstance with a raspy, roughshod vocal and an edgy, upstart attitude.”
- Performing Songwriter
“Whichever feeling he aims for – rousing or reflective – this Texan achieves
striking authenticity.” - Filter
“Ryan Bingham is the real deal…..Bingham wraps it all in calloused hands, his
dusty characters and timeless songs brought to life with big guitars and a gravely
voice.” - Relix
“Like the best top-shelf bourbon, Ryan Bingham delivers a powerful kick with a
smoky, smooth finish.” - Cleveland Scene
“View him as a new wave of observational songwriters with a rock-'n'-roll ethos
who employ sonic details that suggest the rural South.” - Live Daily
“ ‘Roadhouse Sun’…rifles through the dirtier pages of the American songbook --
outlaw country, roadhouse blues, wind-whipped folk -- while blowing it wide open.”
- Los Angeles Times
“His dust-choked vocals might prompt easy comparisons to Tom Waits, but
Bingham isn’t really of the singer-songwriter variety, though he has a way with words.”
- Grade A-, Austin American Statesman
“This is the sort of country music that makes preening posers like Rascal Flatts
weep envious tears.” - FOUR STARS, Fort Worth Star-Telegram
“Amazingly, Roadhouse Sun is not just Mescalito's equal but its better.”
- Blurt
“The album finds Bingham at his gravelly best, peeling off rootsy rockers that would
make Steve Earle take notes…” - Cincinnati City Beat
“Bingham’s album is refreshingly raw, and there’s nothing as powerful as a singer
with just a guitar, stripped of all auto-tune.” - Campus Circle
