When I Cross The River (2007)
"Tom Bolton crafts folk-influenced songs with real wit and intelligence"
Anna Maria Stjärnell - Luna Kafé
"Tom Bolton has a talent for beautiful and interesting music with a melancholic flair wrapped around lyrics and ideas that often run counter to the music in their emotional weight. Bolton's lyrics are intelligent, his melodies instantly memorable, and his performances are spot on."
Wildy Haskell - Wildy's World
"It grabs you before your intellect has a chance to kick in... and sends you on a wave of daydreams. Fred Frith-styled ambient guitars meander under his simple strumming and gorgeous silky voice that recalls Robert Wyatt."
Ighuaran - Music Zeitgeist
"Rarely have I heard such dramatic heartfelt music, and it's tinged with a sense of spirituality that's invigorating"
Calvin Powers - Taproot Radio
"hints of Tim Buckley... resonant guitar... a hushed, desolate air."
Mark Suppanz - The Big Takeover
"Australian folk singer Tom Bolton is a formidable guitarist who writes romantic/poetic lyrics occasionally reminiscent of later-era Sting... probably better than later-era Sting."
Harry S Truman - The Owl and The Bear
"...another excellent offering from a gifted songwriter and poet"
Anne Infante - Folk Rag
"Darn good stuff. I am impressed. Lots better than that other Bolton..."
Radio Mike - Fevered Brain Radio
