"Vaguely reminiscent of Jefferson Airplane, The Cranberries, and 4 Non Blondes, there’s a beguiling edge to the vocals, at once restless and wickedly alluring, swelling with resonant urgency.A rasping, dirty guitar infuses the tune with jagged energy that, juxtaposed against the gripping vocals, gives the song tight, immediacy."

"They kicked up the dust on the archetypal desert rock vibes by adding a little New Orleans flavour and nuances of folk and blues. If I could take a bath in the arcanely psychedelic tones that are swathed in 60’s and 70’s nostalgia, I’d be hesitant to get out. For impious musos, sonic experiences don’t get much more spiritual than Moment of Joy which grips you by the scruff of the neck and drags you into the feel-good bliss with the striking vocals as a guide."

"Firebug, brings us their new single called "Moment of Joy", a song with rock sounds from the sixties and seventies. The single features a powerful rock that combines the classic Woodstock era of the late 1960s with the 1970s vibe; including organic instruments, adding modern rock, a touch of old-school blues; as well as the soul of New Orleans, and culminated with juliette Tworsey's unique, melodic and original vocal style. We think this is a strong track with the combination of that classic nuance of 'Woodstock' with a signature sound set for 2022!" Read more
