Stereogum : "Band To Watch" - "There's palpable warmth and tactful touch that crackles throughout their strongest tunes's group chants, harmonies, occasional computer beats and baroque-pop arrangements that should prove irresistible..."

Brooklyn Vegan, CMJ- "The band's varied indie-pop has a humble, homespun quality to it. They lean on banjos and xylophones for tender rural sounds but also use glitchy and elecro backing to good effect."
