  Of "The Little Belfry EP", esteemed music writer Aaron Drain of State.IE recently said:
  
  "Drawing on influences like Tom Waits and Neil Young, Sumadh’s use of simple yet elegant chord progressions and understated vocals are reminiscent of the darker folk trends that saw out the ’60s and the Summer of Love for the uncertainty of a new generation. With his band of friends and fellow musicians bolstering the sound, The Little Belfry EP is a uniquely captivating exercise in subdued, emotive song-making...To get acquainted, we heartily recommend the title track and a long, brisk walk through cracked, amber leaves and Autumn skies. Soul food."
  
  While Taylor Johnson of Encore NI had this to say of the lead track "Little Belfry":
  
  "'...feels like a travelling song, one born out of experience and tireless craft. A gentle, swooning verse builds to an almost drunken lullaby, as if 'Little Belfry' was already a timeless Pogues tune. In fact, if you were to swap The Mad Dalton's Dylan-esque delivery for Shane MacGowan's snarl, this could easily have come straight out of the Dublin legends locker. The beautiful acoustic interplay merges effortlessly with the brass section, resulting in a song made for Winter nights, an open fire and more than a few bottles of wine."
