Colorado Bluegrass Music Society:

Channeled from Virginia's Stanley Brothers, the spirit energy of mountain music is now in the hands of Colorado's Stanleytones. Read full review...

Bluegrass Unlimited:

"Half a Dozen Heartaches" is a tantalizing offering. For bluegrass that adheres to established values but still seethes with creativeness, the music of the Stanleytones certainly has sterling credentials."

Buck Buckner, KGNU Radio, Boulder, Colo.:

...this band follows the ways of the masters. The group's strong traditional songs are sometimes flavored by a dash of western swing or a pinch of jazz, giving each song the authentic sound of bluegrass music as practiced here in Colorado.

Westword:

...a fine debut album. "Half a Dozen Heartaches" is a highly satisfying collection of traditional, high-lonesome bluegrass.

Colorado Bluegrass Music Society:

The harmonies have excellent blend and pitch, straight from the dark side of the hollow. The Tones have hit the taproot of this style of roots music.
