"Montgomery shows why he won the Best Acoustic Guitar Player Award at the Austin Music Awards on his debut. Montgomery's forte seems to be an intuitive, rough-and-tumble style, unschooled in the way, say Ani DiFranco is: melodic but raw, one foot firmly in folk and the other in roots-based rock a la Steve Earle. Hear him rip out spectacular acoustic leads, especially his seven-minute solo on the album's closer, "Love Comes Knockin'."
