A REVIEW OF 'IT STARTS WITH THE SOUL' PUBLISHED 2ND DECEMBER 2018 IN FOLKWORLD
'From one of my favorite places on the planet, Edinburgh, comes the latest LP from fine folk singer-songwriter, Stephen Harrison. I am no expert in accents, but he was born in London and perhaps has a more worldly voice as a result. Or maybe it is other-worldly, as he is so soft and quiet here, that it opens a world of mystery in every line. The overall tone is so quiet that the delicately picked solo acoustic guitar sound like piercing Goblin shrieks (the band or the beast, your call). Well I exaggerate, but this fascinating approach shows the value of quieting things down for more dramatic intensity. This one is for Leonard Cohen fans and anyone else who likes it deep and still.'
