Press from the 7" 'Feather / Flint'
".The kind of future collectible thing you'll want to own when they become famous.One of Houston's finest bands"
The Houston Chronicle
"Feathers alone is my call for song of the year.It's the stuff that will get you dancing and will take your darkest days and make them bright and joyous."
Ramon Medina, Free Press Houston
".The 7 incher from Heaven to bring Houstonians what they love."
IndieHouston
".These songs are good. Damn good."
Michael Dallas Miller, Dryvetyme Onlyne
".Quickly becoming a Houston trademark"
Craig Hlavaty, Houston Press
"The songs are classics; they definitely pay the past a nod, but the band has built solid tunes on a time-tested foundation and then adorned it with a dash of modernity, giving them a timeless quality."
Marc Brubaker, Houstonist
"If there's an award for Best Hooky Riff of the Year, these guys should be in the running."
Jeremy Hart, Space City Rock
Houston Press



Press from 'A Family Light'
".an album that weaves heartbreaking tales and thoughtful musicianship with folk, country and indie-rock ideas to create an electric, exciting collection of songs" - Sara Cress, The Houston Chronicle



"Simply put, this album's a stunner.the band has an all-too-rare sense of dynamics and knack for strong choruses and male-female, call-and-response vocals." - John Nova Lomax, Houston Press



"Straight out of LaPorte, out in the Houston 'burbs, comes some of the coolest mostly-acoustic music you're likely to hear this side of Austin. Buxton are one of a small handful of indie-folk bands in town who've taken the current folk idiom and pulled it backwards to an earlier time, and they're one of the best around, for my money, in or out of Houston." - Pedro, Space City Rock



"Buxton, as always, were at their very best. Their skillful instrumentation adds so much to the intelligently penned, but sometimes almost harrowing, lyrics of lead singer Sergio Trevino. We were treated to several new songs over the course of Buxton's short set, but the true highlight of the evening was their singalong "Mane Of Gold" followed closely by the rambunctious, mandolin-heavy "Westward"" - Eggs, Breakfast on Tour

"I went back and forth forever trying to decide whether I should give the top spot to a local band that's mostly unknown outside of Houston. But in all honesty, 2008 found me listening to A Family Light more than any other album. It's a brilliant full-length debut from this young quartet, and it speaks volumes about their talent, versatility and promise."

".One band in particular strikes us as having used the studio to extend their songs into new sonic spaces beyond where they exist live. Their recordings have consistently added complimenting guitars and pet sounds their solid straight-up performances." - The Skyline Network Sammie Awards
Press from 'Red Follows Red'
"What they ended up with on last year's release, Red Follows Red, is a rambling pretty library of stories anchored by Trevino's startling warble and Willis' twee plucking." - Sara Cress, The Houston Chronicle - Newspaper Clipping
