"The Rough & Tumble really do create a sound that's much greater than the sum of the parts, and as would be expected this far into their career, the album arrives fully formed.

 

The writing is strong, the playing from the duo and everyone else involved is beautifully sympathetic and the recording values capture everything in lovely organic detail.

 

With 'Only This Far' The Rough & Tumble have produced a fine record indeed."
