“Find A Light pushes the envelope while providing that famous Blackberry Smokeautonomy, delivered with soulful vocals, haunting harmonies and kick-ass songs”
- NPR
“Blackberry Smoke’s crunchy southern rock may be made for fuzzed-out electric guitars, but their songs sure do translate well to being played acoustically... this new recording of “Run Away from It All” seeing singer Charlie Starr and company huddled around microphones as they strum away from the comfort of some stools. The song takes on a more relaxed and wistful vibe, but the same simmering urgency of the original bubbles just beneath the surface.” - Rolling Stone
Find A Light named in Classic Rock’s “Best Albums of 2018” and NPR’s “Favorite Albums of 2018”.
