"Gravenhurst is the work of songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer Nick Talbot from Bristol, England. The Ghost In Daylight is his most sonically diverse work yet, building upon his brand of ambient noise-folk with starkly acoustic songs resting alongside densely layered pieces. The album's lead single 'The Prize' is a dark meditation on recurring Gravenhurst themes of compulsion, degradation and the possibility of transcendence, and contains some of Nick's finest lyrics to date. Conjured from disparate ingredients, Gravenhurst's roots lie in the melodic noise of My Bloody Valentine, the lush vocal harmonies of Simon and Garfunkel, the alchemical guitars of Richard Thompson and Johnny Marr, and the widescreen ambient visions of Brian Eno."

"Multi-instrumentalist songwriter Nick Talbot exhibits a shark-like inability to stay still. Over the course of four albums the Gravenhurst moniker has charted the waters from bedroom melancholy, through acid-folk murder balladry and now, sprawling experimental rock music, suggesting influences as diverse as My Bloody Valentine, Slint, Richard Thompson and the Velvet Underground. Complex, filmic arrangements ('Down River') keep company with literate, romantic songwriting ('Nicole') and hypnotic, kraut-rock workouts ('The Velvet Cell'). The whole 50-odd minutes is suffused with competing themes of violence and deliverance, paranoia and epiphany, squalor and ascendance, peaking with the horrifying 'Animals.'"

"Folk sensation Gravenhurst (aka Nick Talbot) returns after his well-received Flashlight Seasons album with Black Holes In The Sand -- an EP that stands as one of the most exciting releases of the year. With beautiful production and an amazing attention to detail, Gravenhurst creates lush, emotional landscapes with delicately picked guitars, penetrating vocals and subdued atmospheres."

"Flashlight Seasons is the stunning new album from Gravenhurst, aka Nick Talbot, whose music chronicles tales from the darker side of life with a clarity of sound, voice and lyricism that is at times breathtaking, at others shocking, but never less than entirely involving. Gravenhurst's dark romanticism and lush production values call to mind such artists as Simon and Garfunkel, Jeff Buckley and My Bloody Valentine, while his delicate voice and picked guitar strings recall Nick Drake. Yet though he and Drake inhabit a largely pastoral setting, Gravenhurst's world is an altogether stranger one."
