Handmade Life Press Quotes



"Chris Wood has developed into an exceptional songwriter …venturing into areas that few artists would dare tackle."

The Guardian



"Wood"s tongue is truer than most."

The Times



"It really needs to win an award. The band is a marvel and Wood's unpretentious singing carries real weight."

The Independent



"Chris Wood again defies those who foolishly try to second guess him."

Colin Irwin



"The depth of contempt that Wood summons up is astonishing in its power. This is undoubtedly one of the albums of 2010, regardless of genre."

Americana UK.com



"Highly charged observations on life, love and country"

MOJO



"Wood delivers masterpieces… from politics to vegetable patches, he has it covered on this expansive new album."

Songlines – Top Of The World Award



"Understatement and intonation are Wood"s trademarks and his scalpel is so artistically applied you scarcely see the cut. Confirms him as one of English music"s most potent, if complex, talents"

BBC.co.uk



“Chris Wood is at it again, seamlessly melding the personal with the political without any trace of creative fatigue. He's simply an artist in command of a rare talent.”

Spiral Earth



"I"ll warn you now: the sheer sophistication and beauty of Handmade Life willsmack you right between the eyes. Definitely one of the finest folk albums of the year."

E.F.D.S.



"You will be hard pressed to find another recording that is quite so attuned with public sentiment in these times of mistrust and indignation"

Mike Wilson



"Chris Wood personifies the quiet anger that we in the UK do so well… it would be my greatest hope that before any thick, over drugged, under read rock star tries to make a political statement they would listen to this and see how an artful songwriter can make a point without sacrificing standards."

"This really is one hell of an important album. It"s brilliant. It"s also entirely distinctive and simply sounds like no-one else… Genius."

David Kidman – Net Rythms



"You don"t have to be a "folkie" to get it - at its heart it"s decent, honest handmade music for decent, honest handmade people. Something the world needs more than ever right now… "

"I love this album, my album of the year."
