"Joe Rian is at his best when writing songs that confess his love while moving down the road with an earworm of a guitar riff. He is predominantly a country rock guy, but he can cut blues groove too when he wants to. There’s always multiple lines of stuff going on in his songs. Switchyard Sessions is mostly a traveling companion album. They are blue collar songs that help you get down the tracks or get down the road or get through your shift or get the job done so you can go home. His songs are very sing-alongable which helps pass the time." -Calvin Powers
