"I loved the music which had all the serenity and majesty of a forest trail. The score combined soaring and melodic tunes with music by Jeff Thomson." - HeraldNet (TRAILS: A New American Musical)
"PUMP UP THE VOLUME conjures the degenerate rock energy of the Beastie Boys, Sonic Youth and the Descendents. Musical theatre's signature piano-driven balladeering with real rock swagger — hopefully somebody on Broadway is listening!" - New York Magazine
"Pump Up the Volume could become a hit musical attuned to a post-pandemic teenage mental health crisis and a new age of disillusionment." - The Guardian
