QUOTES
“Babes In Canyon gracefully meld together that big classic folk sound with modern indie pop and alluring vocal harmonies that would turn on any fan of the genre, both young and old."
V13 Media
“At the heart of ‘Second Cities’ is a thumping, pulsing beat, over which brilliantly catchy melodic hooks captivate the listener alongside intriguing, atmospheric lyrics. With soaring harmonies, confident musicianship and textured sonic layers, Babes in Canyon manage to create an expansive contemporary folk sound that crosses genres. With Jerry Streeter (Brandi Carlile, Darlingside) on production duties, Babes in Canyon’s rich, warm music is transporting. Displaying excellent songcraft, the band use devices like lyrical repetition and musical pauses to build tension effectively.”
AMERICANA UK
“On its surface, “Tune You Out” is one of the most jangly and euphoric efforts on the record, replete with upbeat rhythms, shuffling syncopated guitars, and lithe piano accents. It even has a breezy whistled interlude carrying the track into its final chorus. Yet, beneath that effortless sheen, the track has a moodier undercurrent, exploring how people tune out the world around them to make it through the day. But while the track’s sunny vibe may just be a facade for more complicated emotions, it does offer the band space to show off some immensely catchy songwriting.”
UNDER THE RADAR
“Glide is premiering the video for a nuanced twist of “The Wolf,” which showcases the band’s tightly wound strength at bridging modern flourishes with the roots flared rock of The Head and the Heart and Lord Huron. Babes in Canyon surely stands to be a festival favorite on lineups soon with this populist approach that puts stirring song and melody at the forefront.”
GLIDE MAGAZINE
"Babes in Canyon artfully combine country folk with modern indie pop and very catchy vocal harmonies that would work in any generation of music. A band very much worth your time.”
