READ THESE EXCITING REVIEWS OF

THE MAVERICK'S ALBUM, “IN TIME”

Saving Country Music’s 2013 Album of the Year! “IN TIME by The Mavericks is the one; the only album that left no room for improvement, was both slick and tight, yet alive and breathing from the live aspect of the recording. It looked both forward, and behind. It led, but also paid tribute. It was a gift of music that gave more than any other in 2013, that also promises to continue to give for years to come.”

****************

IN TIME is critically acclaimed

by many critics as

“...one of the best albums of 2013...”!

What an honor it is to have songs on such a fine album!

New York Magazine’s Jody Rosen listed IN TIME as a among the “10 Best Pop Albums of 2013”! He exclaimed, “What a great band. The first album in ten years by the legendary Miami roots stalwarts is a knockout: fourteen Tex-Mex-tinged country-rock songs, beautifully played and sung... The real wonder is front man Raul Malo’s voice ... he sounds, in turn, like Roy Orbison, Enrico Caruso and a muezzin calling worshippers to prayer...”

Early in the year, Randy Lewis of the Los Angeles Times wrote in an article titled The Mavericks' uplifting 'In Time' a long-awaited reunion, “From beginning to end of the Mavericks' reunion album IN TIME, the genre-busting band embodies the very best of the melting-pot experience that's a fundamental component of the American character. Singer-songwriter Raul Malo and his Nashville-based compatriots draw freely, and joyously, from regional cultures spanning North and South America on a collection that will be hard to top as the year's most scintillating pop music outing...”

The Boston Globe’s Sarah Rodman said of IN TIME - in the article BEST ALBUMS OF 2013 - “...Reunion records are rarely this dynamic and joyous. No mere cash grab, the quartet founded in Miami came back all in, offering up their still-beguiling mix of country and pop with Latin flourishes and topped by the magnificent vocal gifts of frontman Raul Malo...”

Hal Horowitz of American Songwriter affirmed that the album IN TIME "...is as powerful and timeless as anything the Mavericks have done, which is saying plenty....” and “...if the Latin rhythms of “Dance in the Moonlight” don’t make you do what the song’s title suggests, you’re the world’s biggest wallflower...”

Under the headline, Best Music of 2013, NPR (National Public Radio) Music’s Fresh Air’s Music Critic Ken Tucker included IN TIME on his “Top 10 Albums Of 2013” list!

“The Americana Music Association announced its Top 10 & Top 100 Albums of the Year.   IN TIME  # 5, based on those records reported to the Americana Airplay Chart during the period of November 19, 2012 through December 2, 2013.”

Kyle “The Triggerman” Coroneos, in his popular blog, Saving Country Music, wrote (prior to naming IN TIME Saving Country Music’s 2013 Album of the Year) wrote under the title The Mavericks “In Time” One of the Best of 2013 that IN TIME “...is not just a great album for The Mavericks, it is a great addition to the American songbook as an example of the melting pot of cultures that have come together to birth some of the most vibrant and compelling music heard by man...
