"Man Made Souls’ influences include: Peter Gabriel, Dave Matthews Band, Beck and Rusted Root—all mainstream acts, each with a slightly off center twist to their music. What makes these comparisons legitimate is the strength of singer De Vette’s vocal range and his charisma as a front man—he’s as comfortable playing saxophone as he is singing or egging on the band and audience."
--Campus Circle Magazine
"Man Made Souls’ music is a jazzy pop rock—sometimes evocative of the Dave Matthews Band, sometimes of Sting’s ‘Blue Turtle’ album."
--Los Angeles Times
"Man Made Souls takes music to a new level by combining jazz, funk and a world beat. The music really grabs you and takes you somewhere, as opposed to that crap-pop that nips at your ankles. I found myself for the first time attracted to this sort of pop-based, world-beat, party music."
