"THE WASHINGTON POST: Peter Mulvey shows, rather than tells, the details of his songs' emotional landscapes... He favors plain-spokenness over screams and thoroughness over speed... Walt Whitman-like catalogues of images that blended into

"Purpose moved into music fulltime in 1996. A thousand shows, and 20,000 CD's later, Purpose has "finally realized his calling as a dramatist for the dispossessed, a chronicler of those Americans who, by choice or by chance, live on the heart's back streets, rising up through the crooked lines like leaves of grass" writes Michael Tisserand in the liner notes from his album A Crooked Line."
