"Instrumentally, the band packs quite a powerful punch...Further more in Sandy Brechin, the Jimi Hendrix of the box, they have a leader with star quality. They clearly have the capacity to follow Wolfstone and Capercaillie into concert halls."
Inverness Courier

Their unusual and imaginative fusion of electric Scottish ceilidh, pop and modern dance rhythms is extremely effective-played with skill and brio, it's good to listen to and great bopping music to boot. Deeper is that "difficult" third album, and probably their best yet.
Folk Roots

"Burach are among the groups in the forefront of an extraordinary revival in the folk music of the British Isles, fuelled by a combination of deep knowledge and appreciation of tradition and a youthful rock and roll sensibility.That accordion virtuoso and frontman Sandy Brechin also plays with The Sensational Jim Shandrix Experience gives a good indication of the musical territory the group occupies.
The evening's only vocal cover tune was a version of Richard Thomson's 'Vincent Black Lightning 1952' on which the band put its own highly individual stamp.
The empathy between the accordion and fiddle was complete. Brechin and Borland played with and off each other with a tightness that can only be achieved by years of live performance experience. The music was faithful to tradition but extended it rather than focusing on the slavish recreation of old arrangements as they might once have been played. The message is that this is modern music - it just happens to have been around for a while."
