- Jan 16, 2026On Off the Fence, Hunter's crew display their richest stylistic and rhythmic varieties to date in songs that stimulate the body and resonate in the heart.
- Jan 14, 2026Though the album sounds remarkably fresh, it also has that vintage sheen of albums from yesteryear – a dozen songs, each only three-four minutes long, comprising a digestible, head bobbing, enjoyable 40 minutes.
- Jan 14, 2026All 12 tracks have their individual charms and work as separate gems. This is not a concept album, but there is a uniformity to it, rooted in Hunter’s distinctive voice and droll, earnest comic tone.
- MojoJan 14, 2026Van's back, lending vocals to Ain't That A trip, a joyous R&B number that provides one of many highpoints on Hunter's eleventh album. [Jan 2026, p.86]
- Classic Rock MagazineJan 14, 2026James Hunter's scuffed, sepia-toned soul holler remains something to here on this latest release. [Feb 2026, p.81]
