"On the debut album "A Small Part of Something Beautiful", Jacob Ray's Young Immortals wear their influences on their sleeve like a badge of honor. The haunting qualities of Jeff Buckley, mixed with the pop song craft of the Beatles and Radiohead.†- Papst Blue Ribbon advertisement - July 2005 -Papst Blue Ribbon advertising “The Young Immortals write the soundtrack for your next broken-hearted car ride in the rain. The debut album begs for you to sing along between the tears and melodies.†-Morgan M Moody of the Willamette Weekly “Ray's voice is mesmerizing. It sounds smooth and reassuring, a little like Radiohead, and it makes you want to keep listening.†-Music Liberation Project “Jacob Ray was born to play music, listening to the gorgeous intimacy of his solo debut, you’re struck by the sheer, helpless joy of music. Overstuffed with assured, rich, original songwriting both instantly familiar and rewarding of continued attention, the album perfectly exploits Ray’s hero Jeff Buckley and the transcendent elation of Britpop’s happier set. The Young Immortals are Thoughtful, but not depressive. Sing-a-long, but not throwaway. And, throughout, lushly textured by an evocative production that belies the relatively spontaneous home recording.†-Jay Horton - NWPaper/Portland Tribune “Ray's agile, supernaturally sweet voice, the kid-in-a-candy-store instrumentation (A Small Part employs everything from autoharp to organ), the sweeping, solidly written guitar-based tunes... they don't go away. Varied in style, rougher around the edges -- in short, American. The Young Immortals have the potential to be your new favorite sensitive, slightly quirky rock band. -Splendid Music Reviews - Sarah Zachrich “Beautiful melodies and great vibe.†– Rumblefish "If you are a fan of Indie-pop, this record is for you, no doubt." -KPSU Radio Jacob Ray is currently performing shows solo and with his full band THE YOUNG IMMORTALS.
