“'Skip Town' balances the uplifting with the harsh realities in stunning fashion, all while a smooth concoction of twinkling keys and sleek melodies builds an irresistible arrangement. Rourke and his band are one of the more exciting young acts in the burgeoning soul scene, and “Skip Town” only begins to hint at what is promising to be a stellar career. The band’s new single introduces them as soul revivalists unafraid to push the boundaries of the genre, entering uncharted sonic territories that are lush and welcoming."   - Glide Magazine
