Praise for Jonathan Hape’s recorded music:

“Jonathan Hape is one of the most prolific musicians in the Columbus scene, probably the

Midwest. Yet, still few know who he is.” – iamtunedup.com

“He’s a master craftsman, and very capable at transforming small snippets of sound and

melodic ideas into living, breathing spaces to get lost within.” – Music In Motion

“Jonathan Hape weaves an intoxicating blend of sonic tapestries together… sounding like

something from Audrey Horne’s jukebox, his multi-tracked vocals echo dreamily off in the

distance even as entire songs shimmer, mirage-like.” – Round Magazine

“[PLACES is] Catchy to the easily uninterested listener. [Four Stars] ****” – Cincinnati Examiner

“Drags you in a pastel flooded colour day… 60’s style and vagrant attitude” ~ soundinjections.com
