“You hear a little Queen, some Beatles, XTC, and a whole lot of Northwestern verve. Some beautifully crafted pop songs.” – Chris Garcia, Hollywood

This Portland six-piece just gets better and better, harnessing classic rock harmonies, subtle guitar picking and blasting riffs, psychedelic passages and earnest lyrical storytelling. Singer Eric Earley and the gang are not timid with the material, whipping up grand palaces of song that start with cooing and plucking and ascend rapidly to Wagnerian dreamlands that would make Styx or Kansas proud. Rather like their soulmates Fleet Foxes or Dr. Dog, they boldly fuse stomping '60s and '70s influences with searching, creative indie-rock mastery.
