RECENT PRESS & REVIEWS OF GHOST REPEATER:
THE NEW YORKER:
"An album full of gravelly, gorgeously rolling poems about weather,
trains, and love... exceptional."
THE NEW YORK TIMES:
“Jeffrey Foucault is a young man with an old soul… contemporary
and timeless.”
THE WASHINGTON POST:
"Not that Foucault doesn't know the dark side of being from the
U.S.A. It's hinted at in the lyrics and also in Foucault's voice, a
young man's baritone that's been roughed up by the grit of creation,
revealing layers of wisdom and wonder... [he] can conjure demons as
adroitly as his Americana heroes Chris Smither and Townes van Zandt."
THE STEREO TIMES:
“Impossible to take your ears away... a singular talent,
an important new voice... striking intimacy and naturalness of tone...
a brilliant collection of songs... [an] artistic and masterful achievement."
THE DENVER POST:
“Excellent...Foucault's strong, sandy voice and gently
melodic tunes seem perfectly suited for nuanced material balancing poetic
cultural critiques with songs about love... a mix of upbeat and pensive
country-folk and blues... captures that mood without trying to be a
definitive statement... oozes a comfortably leathered vibe."
THE NEW YORK POST:
“Reflective roots music... Ghost Repeater drips
in pedal steel and quiet beauty."
UTNE READER:
"He's barely 30...but Jeffrey Foucault sounds like a grizzled old bachelor
holed up in a one-room shack at the edge of an Iowa cornfield... haunting
texture...weepy pedal steel... Taking a road trip this fall? Put this
one on the playlist."
THE SUN (UK):
"It's easy to pigeon-hole Jeffrey Foucault as "Americana"
or "alternative-country". These tired tags, however, barely
do justice to this exquisite album... the sheer quality of the writing
and playing means that Ghost Repeater transcends all preconceptions.
He is simply a talent cut from the same cloth as Nick Drake or Townes
Van Zandt... recommended to lovers of every kind of music."
