-“Lovers League is a sweet expansion on the theme of young, infatuated love.”
-“Melding their vocals, McGlinchey and Mari create a smooth yet earthy, enriching texture with a folk-oriented acoustic country-blues foundation that provides a natural heartfelt penetrating sound.”
The Deli
-“Lovers League, a duo of Reverend TJ McGlinchey and former Origivation (now That Music Mag) Acoustic Artist of the Year Dani Mari, make breezy, well-crafted country-folk that is perfect for summer afternoons. The focus here is squarely on careful, melodic songwriting and the gorgeous, Emmylou Harris and Gram Parsons-inflected harmonies between Mari and McGlinchey, who both wrote songs for the project.”
That Mag
-“The sound the three produce is simultaneously worthy of a sing-along and of a boot-stomping get-together around a campfire–all things that are right up my alley as a listener.”
Rock on Philly
-“Feeling nostalgic for the riffs of a Quentin Tarantino soundtrack? Hold your breath no longer; Lovers League want to take you there and lay it down the line, so to speak.”
Drunken Werewolf
-“Dani Mari and Reverend TJ McGlinchey, both acclaimed members of the Philly folk scene, who together tap into something sweet, sincere, and uniquely compelling. Together, they craft sentimental love songs and perfect duets.”
