Sault Star, May 27, 2016: "Dunn Finds Solace with New CD"
Michael Doherty's Music Log: "Review of Solace"
"There's an echo of Bruce Cockburn in Dunn's guitar work...The instrumentals are engaging guitar journeys that explore sound and acoustic space. By themselves they would be a compelling reason to acquire this album, but that's only scratching the surface...The combination of strong lyrics and compelling guitar work make this album shine...This one's a keeper." ~Gene Wilburn, Penguin Eggs Magazine, Autumn 2016.
