"From north of the border comes Slowdrag, a dynamic trio featuring the harmonious duet vocals of Koralee Tonack (guitar) and Craig McKerron(guitar). Paul Bergman rounds out the group on acoustic bass. Craig and Koralee take turns on lead and harmony vocals. From start to finish, 'Ploughin' It Right to the Fence' proves to be a perfect venue for showcasing the distinctive talents of Slowdrag." - Bluegrass Unlimited, USA, Jun/01.

"Kick back and indulge in the sweet and sultry sounds of Vancouver’s three-piece Slowdrag." - Mark Webber, Red Deer Express, Canada, Aug/01.

"Well, golly-gee, this is one fine album ... a trio that goes straight to the heart of classic country and bluegrass music ... as you listen to its simple sweetness, its deep mournfulness and its fireside warmth, you can't help but wonder why everything has to be so gosh-darn complicated, anyhow." - Jennifer Van Evra, The Vancouver Courier, Canada, Feb/01.

"Tonack and McKerron have really nailed the old-time, mountain harmonies" - John P. McLaughlin, The Province, Vancouver, Canada, Jan/01.

"Not only have they listened carefully to their elders, they sound like they could have been there when the original 78s were recorded ... (they) seem to have a magical affinity for times past. Slowdrag can make the older songs (and seven of the 13 pieces have dust on them) feel utterly alive and contemporary, with searing high harmonies, some heart-stopping picking, and the kind of raw, sparkling edge that’s there in the best music." - Chris Nickson, FROOTS Magazine, UK, Oct/01.

"Exhibiting a backporch, bluegrass sound that never lets up, Slowdrag's harmonies are sweet with natural spontaneity. Slowdrag's debut is a joyous, old-time acoustic abum favorably reminiscent of Gillian Welch and David Rawlings. " - Bluegrass Now, Canada.
