PRESS ARCHIVE

Easily the most soulful record in recent memory — Fred Mills, Blurt

Greg Humphreys returns to his old stomping grounds with Haymaker, his electric trio’s new album of funk- and soul-infused Americana jams. — Spencer Griffith, Indyweek

Most of the material comes across with an easy sway, effortless and alluring....One gets the sense that Humphreys is building his reputation cautiously but deliberately, and Lucky Guy proves that his good fortune is all but inevitable. — Lee Zimmerman, No Depression

All the elements in this album hit the mark....Everything is right and Greg Humphreys Electric Trio is electrifying. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED — Rob Ross, Popdose

All of Humphreys’ musical projects have shared some common elements: His distinctive soulful rasp, channeling Sam Cooke by way of Rod Stewart; his tight, imaginative guitar work; and his gift for writing melodic, catchy, deceptively simple tunes. — Eddie Huffman, Winston-Salem Journal

Lucky Guy, the first release with his Electric Trio, reflects the optimism of a man who’s made the right moves. — David Klein, Indy Week

As the album name implies, it’s a breezy, happy-go-lucky track with a steady groove and Humphreys’ easy and sensual rasp, which channels Curtis Mayfield. — Elmore Magazine video premiere

Lucky Guy focuses on Humphreys' strong suits -- great songs and a cool, soulful voice that works across genres -- but it also finds him pushing boundaries. — Brian Tucker, Wilmington Star News
