"Since migrating from Cambridge,
Mass to Nashville some three decades ago, Mark Brine has carved out a strong
reputation as an uncompromising traditionalist on the country music scene which
has made him one of the elder statesmen of Americana."
-- Shaun Dale, Cosmik Debris Magazine
"I could listen to him sing
all night long he does a good job that boy does."
-- Roy Acuff, Ernest Tubb Midnight Jamboree
"A fine young man who I think
has a great future."
-- Hank Snow,
Grand Ole Opry
"Brine could easily have been added to the cast of 'O
Brother, Where Art Thou' without raising an eyebrow. He belongs
to that group of artists whose individuality and quirkiness consign
them to the periphery of what's commercially viable. But God bless
him for not just being another cog in the musical wheel."
-- James McSweeney, Flyin Shoes

"Brine writes wonderful story songs about ordinary people
and ordinary places. To tell these stories, Mark has a voice that is
as comfortable as a favourite coat."
-- Pete Smith, Country Music Round Up
"I think what makes Mark Brine such
a gifted songwriter/storyteller is the fact that he seems to be such an
obvious fan of many genres of music. He's someone who is like a sponge
when it comes to reintegrating influences into his own work."
-- Gail Worley,
Ink 19
"His career has pursued the path of a truly independent artist -
someone who follows his soul and does things his own way his ability
to write and produce has made his name synonymous with quality."
-- Doug Floyd, AltCountryTab.com
