Praise for Family of the Year:

"I'd never heard anything like them before. They were so eclectic in the music choices, something like a combination of folk indie rock and the Beach Boys. I was fascinated. They were [Ben Folds'] favorite, too." - Keith Lockhart, Conductor of the Boston Pops Orchestra

"A collective that's equally comfortable harmonizing on '70s-style Hollywood Hills piano rock as it is churning out urgent, high-tech indie pop." - SPIN.com

"They're like the Mamas and the Papas on acid." - Steven Tyler
