“With Minstrels, Capps has finally made a classic album.” – American Songwriter Magazine
“The New Orleans-steeped literary roots rocker hasn’t gone countrypolitan: he’s just taken his down-home game to a new level, and illuminated his vocal gifts in the process.” – Relix Magazine
“The album has just about everything a Grayson Capps fan could want: Memorable characters, a handful of swampy hard-rocking numbers, a range of moods that makes full use of Capps’ ability to voice naked emotion, even a touch of Mardi Gras.” – Mobile Press Register
“The Lost Cause Minstrels takes all of Capps’ strengths, hones them to a razored point, and trains them on the listener in a wily collection of songs that reflect pathos, passion, and earned wisdom.” – All Music Guide
“‘The Lost Cause Minstrels’ should be the record that introduces Capps to the world, at least those that are paying attention, cause it’s his watershed moment…definitely top 5 record of the year as we stand at almost the midway point of 2011.” – Captain’s Dead
