To Listen to 3rd Stone CD Review Podcast from the Independent Florida Alligator click on player below: 
..."This southern reggae-funk band spins afro-beat-inflected polyrhythmic jams like they were born doing it. In 2006, then-10-year-old guitarist Anthony Kavouklis made his impromptu stage debut with blues legend Buddy Guy to much acclaim. His abilities attracted the most talented local musicians around and, from then on, 3rd Stone Band's amazing improvisational abilities have continued to morph into a true creative force. "Give Me Hope", a song about personal freedoms, is driven by afro-beat percussion and group vocals that do just what the song's title asks. It's not everyday you come across a musical group with such a positive message behind it. Check out their self-titled debut, which dropped in November 2009." SPIN Earth - Lucky 12: Our Favorite Tracks by Up and Coming Bands ..."3rd Stone, a reggae/funk band out of Gainesville, continues to amaze, with soaring vocals, great messages and an all around cool-as-shit groove." festgrrl, Southern Music Festival Blog
..."young phenoms..." Jam Base ... "3rd Stone showcased an electric blend of regional influences, blending reggae and world beats with a positive message, and a truly special guest, Mr. Bernie Worrell! After a chance meeting with the drummer, Sean Patrick Macguire , I got to see them fulfill one of their dreams, to cover a Talking Heads song with an actual member. I was impressed with these guys, and see big things to come for this Florida band." Festival Family read more
