"Edward Abbiati, till vardags frontfigur i bandet Lowlands, kommer i och med 'To The Light' med sin 2:a soloskiva, musik som jag varmt kan rekommendera. En musikalisk anrättning som inte bara svänger, utan dessutom låter så där lagom ohämmat."

- Torbjörn Berlin / Berlin Calling -

"Låtarna på Edward Abbiati's 'To The Light' är små miniberättelser med skilda teman som ändå binds ihop i ämnen som tenderar närma sig varandra i en röd tråd. En skiftande och bra platta i höstens alla färger."

- Micheles Kindh / Blaskan -

"Edward Abbiati, ex-frontman of Lowlands, returns with his 2nd solo album, 'To The Light'. It is a colourful blend of rock, folk, and punk, that takes listeners on a rollercoaster ride, delivering both raucous energy and quieter introspection."

- Kenneth Bremer / Blue Desert -

"'To The Light' is Edward Abbiati's 2nd full length solo release after 10 years fronting his band Lowlands, and then an album with Chris Cacavas, "Me And The Devil'. Abbiati’s last album, 2019’s 'Beat The Night', had a more acoustic feel, but the new electric material is more dynamic, more urgent and makes for a compelling listen. The Hampshire born Anglo Italian’s songs blend rock, punk and folk, creating direct, immediate music that sweeps the listener along with it. Check it out!"

- Andrew Frolish / Americana UK -

"I loved 'Beat The Night', 'To The Light' turns it up and brings an E Street Band warmth and breadth to Abbiati’s music and finds the soul review in his music."

- Marc Higgins / Fatea Magazine -

"Edward Abbiati's 'To The Light' is a great conglomeration that results in a sound that’s proficient. The songs were mixed in Wales and mastered in Nashville. This is one of the best CDs I’ve heard this year. Expressive singing and well written songs."

- John Apice / Americana Highways -

"This is another interesting album from an artist who continues to grow and expand his vision. Worth 40 minutes of your time to enjoy the songs, strong production and superb musicianship."

- Paul McGee / Lonesome Highway -

"The new solo album from Edward Abbiati is a nice mixture of indie, college rock, singer songwriter, americana, melodic pop rock, heartland rock and everything in between. It’s quite a fun record with many happy uptempo tunes that could easily become radio hits."

- Gabor Kleinbloesem / Strutterzine -
