"The Drunken Hearts is another band shaped in the southern rock tradition with a decidedly more country rock flair on “Want You Back” from their debut EP called Love & Thirst. Other songs on the EP carry the same vibe – and there are even a couple of nods to the twin guitars you might have heard from the [Allman Brothers' Band] or the Outlaws or Marshall Tucker Band …nicely produced and mixed, their harmonies and tight playing are a direct complement to the influences they most emulate."

Music Marauders | YarmonyGrass 2016 Review | 9/5/16
"The Drunken Hearts took the Main Stage for their final set of the weekend and what a set it was! Take all of your pre-conceived notions and memories of The Drunken Hearts and throw them out the window. What the band is doing currently will catch you off guard and potentially melt your face. From start to finish the boys dug deep into a groove that featured ample shredding and beautifully poetic lyrics. It was easy to get lost in the music, only to find yourself again with a classic riff or sweet lyrical sentiment. The Drunken Hearts were firing on all cylinders and it was clear, YarmonyGrass was their party."

Marquee Magazine | Album Review: 'Love & Thirst' | 6/1/16
On their new EP Love and Thirst ... the band veers to the left of jam-inspired Americana, such as Hard Working Americans with tracks like “Happy” and screeches to the right of greasier Americana acts like Lucero with songs like “Want You Back.” —Brian F. Johnson
Music Marauders | Album Review: The Drunken Hearts' Love & Thirst | 5/24/16
"As a relatively young band, these gentlemen are surely on the upswing of their musical career together. They show confidence and promise while always being a fun band to listen to, always danceable yet reflective and passionate. The Drunken Hearts continue to push the limits of a contemporary edge while remaining thematically traditional and true to soulful country rock." —Derek Miles
