“[‘Porto Song’ is] a gorgeous jangly number from local stalwart Nick Griffith. When he sings “You’re windswept and rosy”, it just makes me imagine I’m waiting for my fish ‘n’ chips order on a pier somewhere on the south coast.” – Robert Moran, Sydney Morning Herald
“Exploring the most abject corners of post-punk and 80s-inspired pop, 7am [is a] bold, warm-hearted debut." – The Fader
"Nick Griffith tempers luxuriant yacht-pop arrangements with lo-fi touches across the sunny 7am." – Bandcamp (New & Notable)
"Every musical knick-knack of the record comes alive with this sense of personality, feeling as though it’s been playfully pieced together via its DIY recording into a curious, affectionate whole." – FBi Radio (Feature Album)
"Nick's contribution to Sydney music over the years and over many projects is demi-god level good. Any time he drops something new, you know I'm listening." – Dave Ruby Howe, triple j Unearthed
