David Pogue, New York Times "Cool video, good song, and a clever idea." Chez Pazienza, Deus Ex Malcontent and formerly of CNN "Everyone gushed." Music Connection "All-around strong, mellow, and appealing... An emotional spectrum of melancholy, charged opinion, and love." BeatCrave"Chris Blake takes matters into his own hands when it comes to promoting his music." Social media pundit Chris Brogan "This is really great." 103.5 KISS-FM, Chicago "Watching 'Lullaby' was so moving it reduced me to tears." New Jersey Star-Ledger "Watch this video." - Mothering "We'd be remiss if we didn't add to the fist bumps for musician Chris Blake Can't beat a little netsourced emotion." Urlesque"He is gaining fans right and left... Heating up the blogosphere." Indie Update "Great album. Listened to it several times. Very, very good. Very good." Al Bowman, L.A. Music Awards "Ingenious." 98.3 WMGQ-FM, New Jersey"If you had told me that a sweet lullaby song could feature the word 'TV' as the last word, I'd probably have laughed -- hey, I was wrong." Zooglobble "Truly great and profound." Hot 103.1 CKMM-FM, Winnipeg "I have this CD and I love it... People do part ways with their money, but only if the products don't suck." As Suanie Sees It "Chris Blake delivers a pop-rock powerhouse with his new album... Wave is an album built for the radio." Tunes Level "Its so nostalgic it will make you yearn for childhood once again." dkMommySpot "Chris Blake is ready for the radio... Wave is an incredibly infectious pop-rock album." MuzicReviews "In a world where so few albums can be listened to from start to finish, Chris Blake has delivered us one rare gem." Mossip "Chris Blake just might be the next big thing." Wildy's World "Wave is packed with earnest and appealing pop rock for the VH1 generation." BNAC Music Blog "Do yourself a favor and give it spin." My Record Journal "Sad, funny, emotional, heartfelt, and above all, human." The Fire Wire Stubborn in its moodiness but unshakably melodic, Chris Blakes new album WAVE spans many genres of popular music—from country and progressive rock to folksy hip hop and 80s/90s pop. Each song retains a familiar feel, adding to the albums overall sense of yearning and powerlessness. WAVE can be purchased on iTunes, CDBaby, Amazon, and just about anywhere music is sold online.For more: www.myspace.com/chrisblakemusic
