“Country rockers The Divorcees are using their piping hot brand of red-blooded music and sharp humorous lyrics to put the Maritimes on the musical map. From start to finish, "You Ain't Getting My Country" is a magnificent albuam bursting with personality, humour, and damn good tune. (…)The Divorcees are the genuine article. It's easy see that these musicians are totally enjoying themselves, and this shines through in their music. Songs like "Red Blooded Woman" reflects their take-no-crap attitude, and it's catching. Like a speeding juggernaut they are trail-blazing their way across Canada, and with a bit of luck we'll see The Divorcees this side of the Atlantic in no time at all.”

“New Brunswick group The Divorcees (the name apparently refers to their marital status), are a bunch of Renegade, Outlaw, Red-Necked, Blue-Collared Honky Tonk Heroes...there, that should describe 'em. […] Energy abounds throughout this collection of 13 all-original tunes… Many selections jump out as potential follow-ups to the lead single, Take, Take, Take (as in 'divorce settlement'), but most noteworthy is the bluesy hurtin' tune Nearly Fell, a bouncy Buck Owens style item in Watcha Gonna Do, and a bluegrass-flavoured winner with the tongue-in-cheek Boonies. Even better than all of that is the album's fiery closing tune, Hit the Road. This one has definite”hit” potential. - Larry Delaney, Country Music News, October, 2006
“Moncton's Divorcees have leapt back 30-plus years in country music to give us this album full of rousing honky tonk - songs about love, life, small town life and all the problems that come along the way. […] …this sounds fresh, and it's a ton of fun. If you miss country the way it once was, The Divorcees most certainly will not disappoint you. Highly recommended. (**** - Excellent)” - Eric Lewis, Times and Transcript, Aug 2006
“Their sound is undeniably classic country and also undeniably refreshing to hear. […]The album clips along at a great pace with enough musical variety to keep the listener's attention throughout. […]The band's strength on this record is obvious: it's their songs, which stand heads and shoulders above so many of their peers both nationally and internationally. The Divorcees will appeal to the masses on the strength of their songs alone. Get on this train now before you're left behind.” - Ken Kelly, here magazine, Aug 2006
“quartet’s debut CD You Ain’t Gettin’ My Country is a dust-kickin’, guitar-twangin’, beer-swillin’ good time that rocks like a mechanical bull without making any concessions to the crossover crowd.” - Stephen Cooke, The Chronicle-Herald, Aug 2006
