“...Whip smart, uncompromising, and delivered just in time for the uncertainty of today. Journos bring the protest music we need with the right touch of snark, so we can tap our feet and pump our fists at the same time, no easy feat. Play 'The Burning Question' loudly, these are bite sized messages that need to be heard.” - Mike Gioscia, radio host of Americanarama (WUMB in Boston)
— Americanarama, 91.9 WUMB FM Boston, MA
“As engaging as their vocals, melodies and romping eclectic rhythms are...it’s ultimately their storytelling that wins the day...if you didn’t get the memo about their inventive interactive guitarisma, you could literally spend all day on the page of their website that lays out their lyrics...stellar romp of a collection. ” - Jonathan Widran, Entertainment journalist (L.A. Times, Billboard.com, et.al)
“The Burning Question is a blistering follow-up to their critically acclaimed 2023 debut...a masterclass in indie Americana and blues-rock that doesn’t just push boundaries - it obliterates them with a sly grin and a whiskey-soaked swagger...a masterpiece, with a polished yet raw energy.” - Keith Pro, CEO
“Russo and Abbott tearing up the underground Indie scene! Fresh off their breakout debut release...Journos is back with a vengeance with ‘The Burning Question’. Combining elements of indie americana, blues and rock, this album is steady ear candy for listeners.” - Jimmy Rae
“The Burning Question feels like a dispatch from the frontlines of contemporary America, both confessional and cultural critique. These songs pack punch, humor, and guitar solos sharp enough to draw blood.” - Cherine Abulwafa
“You’ll find catchy rhythms, jazzy vibes, soulful ballads, and punk-infused grit all wrapped into a journey that feels both raw and deeply personal. Beneath the upbeat beats and pleasant delivery though, lies a razor-sharp critique of modern life.” - Viola Karmy
