“PETER MULVEY is reaching for gold with his new record The Silver Ladder, produced by Chuck Prophet.  ”

The eclectic range of Mulvey’s tireless past pays handsome dividends on this stylistically sweeping, LA-recorded album. A crack specially convened band (including regular Dylan drummer David Kemper) adhere to his well-established live and direct recording approach and allow the performer’s deeply matured, naturally wry and hard-edged Americana to attain full, flowing life. From the raunchy melodic pop of “Sympathies” through suburban requiem “Remember the Milkman”, the dizzying weirdness of “If You Shoot At A King” and even Led Zeppelin modal thunder on “Copenhagen Airport”, Mulvey’s troubled visions attain striking clarity. – Gavin Martin, Uncut

Davis Enterprise:
“The cream of the crop… sings with a clarity reserved for the likes of legends.”

Boston Globe:
“Peter Mulvey is all substance, which is his style.”

“His oeuvre is every bit as impressive as that of more heralded singer-songwriters such as Nick Lowe and John Hiatt, and his brand new album, Fine Rude Thing, is one of the young year’s best.” Jeff Niesel, Cleveland Scene
