Playing at the Esplanade with their moody acoustic pop, The Blue China Experiment was fantastic. The inclusion of a trumpet gave the songs a soulful feel, and the songs were heartfelt without being overwrought or maudlin. - perthbands.com
"The ‘Shades of Night’ EP is being launched at Mojo’s Bar, Fremantle, on Saturday 21st May, and Toodyay’s Jukebox Radio were privileged to receive an advance copy. And we can tell you…it’s BRILLIANT. It’s not often you hear half a dozen genres in one piece of music, but Blues, Soul, Funk, Folk, it’s all there. And spewing emotion. It was with pleasure that we have added The China Blue Experiment to our playlist". - Jukebox Radio
