Praise for "Western Tales & Trails":
Brilliant album- Rootsville
Compelling stories from a gifted storyteller... Klein has found a rich vein of songwriting material and mined it with extraordinary skill... incredible stuff, a distillation of wide and tasteful influences that still manages to speak in its own compelling voice... recalling Paul Simon but imbued with the wide eyed spirit of Neil Young- Americana UK
"[Kleins] star is on the rise... This troubadour from Athens, Georgia, plays Americana, country, and folk rock once again set to beautiful lyrics, often much avowed and strikingly poetic. Townes Van Zandt, Mark Olson, Steve Earle and Josh Ritter come to mind spontaneously upon listening to Kleins soul-moving performance." - CtrlAltCountry
[S]urprisingly strong album by the young singer-songwriter from Athens, Georgia... Klein succeeds in leaving behind a great impression through finely detailed lyrics and an excellent accompanying band... Storytelling is an art which Klein masters- Kindamuzik
His songs... fall squarely in the storytelling tradition of such gifted writers as Townes Van Zandt and David Olney. Listening to the Athens, Georgia, artist's material is sometimes like stepping into a sepia-toned photograph, or through the swinging doors of a saloon.- Russell Hall, No Depression
Adam Klein serves up nicely-done, understated Americana... evokes prime Band and later-period Byrds- Jeff Clark, Stomp & Stammer
Kleins got the grit of a seasoned pro as he pays homage to a time long past with impeccable charm and grace.- Alec Wooden, Athens Blur Magazine
Western Tales & Trails is a mix of dark lyrics, surrounded by an upbeat tempo, and Jim White vocal styling- Lithium Radio
