about
"The beauty of Jacob Yates and the Pearly Gate Lock Pickers is that they’re basically a shambolic garage band, yet still manage to sound good. How they make it work, I have no idea. Maybe it’s the deranged poetry of the lyrics, or maybe it’s the way they hark back to rock 'n' roll’s blues-steeped beginnings. Whatever it is, it works for me... 4/5" - Gavin Porter / Is This Music?
