"The dreamy and ethereal opening track, “Finally,” sets the twangy, but not overtly so, sound for the seven songs that follow. Dunn creates a sonic landscape that borders on melancholy with songs like “Southern Star” and “Linden Street.” Meanwhile, “Ain’t Quite Sure” and a cover of Ted Hawkins's “Sorry You're Sick” punch into country-rock territory, with overdriven guitars and rumbling drums that beg for performance in a rural honky-tonk." - DENVER WESTWORD
"Dunn is a storyteller, whose songs are populated by characters and have a strong sense of place... ‘Southern Star’ has grown naturally from the acoustic folk of Dunn’s debut ‘Scattered Poems’, itself an excellent record; it’s a more layered and varied take on Americana and absolutely worth checking out." - AMERICANA-UK
