"Toys From Balsa" may suggest something cheap and functional, but its' author shapes rich, diverse and wonderfully engaging creations from his source material." - Whisperin & Hollerin "a voice inspired by Bowie...interesting songwriting where the lyrics are genuinely thoughtful - and at times a bit disturbing." - Guitar & Bass Magazine "It may not be intentional but this is maybe one of Lancashire’s weirdest concept albums yet.
