"Calum Gilligan quickly proves to be a gifted songwriter with a voice to back it up." - Folk Radio 

"...a beautiful opening act. A lovely voice with a few gloriously pop-edged tunes. There was a hint of Kris Drever about him, and that's no bad thing." -Downend Folk Club

"Maybe Half A Lifetime may only consist of five songs, but in those precious gems stands a feeling of understanding the songwriter and artist in such a way that the need to hold the songs close is overwhelming, that the time played with is enough to reminisce of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel at their absolute best" - Liverpool Sound and Vision

"The perfect musical mélange for the quiet hours of the day, one best enjoyed having a hot brew in a cozy setting." - Carpe Carmina
