John Egan Makes Up For Lost Time With Better Late Than Never
​

“a genuinely independent record that has him being joined by talented musicians on all the tracks…each of their involvement resulted in a cohesive record that has a ton of substance from beginning to end.”
​
“In a sonic sense, Better Late Than Never is a classic example of an Americana album...(t)he originality is refreshing while the arrangements have a distinct flow...a sonic impact being forged that’s nice and easy as well, nothing is in your face or unbearably intense. Egan utilizes this approach in excellent fashion while showing his essence as a songwriter in every song.”

"Stop, Rock, and Roll" by Jack Downey
"Kicking off with gloriously crunchy guitars, the newest single by John Egan immediately hooks the listener. With a voice like an American Keith Richards, his singing radiates confidence and wit. Harmonica and tambourine add extra spice to the track as well, keeping it from being just another power-pop tune (though, in all honesty, what’s wrong with that?). The band’s upcoming album, Better Late Than Never, will arrive soon as well."

“The simple guitar-bass-drums instrumentation and the straightforwardness of the songs make them surprisingly winning. John Egan’s...band plays with verve, something like a less raw Ramones...cool” - Jimmy Moore - Sweet Potato Magazine
