critic Chuck Dauphin writes, “what really sets Stevens apart is his way
with a ballad. Whether it be on the stunning ‘Ordinary Angels’ or on
his current single ‘Power of a Love Song,’” he demonstrates a depth that
brings to mind artists such as one of his biggest influences, Garth
Brooks. Tate Stevens shows on his debut album that he’s got the talent
to be a long-term voice in this business.”
