"...he is a sublime stylist who is aware of the masters and can play effortlessly in a wide range of acoustic styles...[Surface Tension] is an album of great gentleness and sensitivity."
Sydney Morning Herald

"Winton's music is a vague cross between John Butler and Harry Manx. However, Winton is a wizard on the lap-steel, particularly the 'Wintonbeast'...and it's his mastery of this instrument and the way in which he applies it, that lifts him clear of labels..."
Rhythms Magazine
