BROOKLYN BAND ADDED TO GREEN RIVER FESTIVAL JULY 10
Leland Sundries’ debut full-length album ‘music for outcasts,’ out June 3
on L’Echiquier Records/Weiner Records, has earned raves in the UK,
where it is already out. The Brooklyn band has also been added to the
Green River Festival playing July 10, the same day as Tedeschi Trucks
Band, North Mississippi All Stars, and Margo Price. Here’s what the UK
press has said:
“Heaps of wit and melody… Beautiful rambling storytelling that flirts with pop and sounds a little like Silver Jews.”
- Peter Watts, UNCUT, April, 2016
“Scrappy yet ingenuous rock poetry.”
- MOJO, March, 2016
“Life affirming… Leland Sundries’ debut album and first European release
shows a ton of promise and is a very enjoyable listen. It will
certainly appeal to fans of bands like Velvet Underground and Jonathan Richman as well as fans of bands like Whiskeytown and Starsailor.”
- Alan Ewart, Louder Than War, February 16, 2016
“All eleven tracks show glimpses of a future master musical storyteller just starting out. It’ll be exciting to see where Loss-Eaton – and Leland Sundries – go next.”
- Paul Heatley, Rock N Reel, April, 2016
“Leland Sundries match crackling garage rock with a near bubblegum love
of melody. The band's sound sits somewhere between Pavement and The
Archies, with a dose of Jonathan Richman's off kilter wit thrown in for
good measure.”
- Robin Murray, Clash Music, January 19, 2016
“Cool… Notes of Lou Reed and the Modern Lovers.”
- Metro London, December 12, 2015
“Oddball storytelling.”
- The Beat Juice, November, 23, 2015
“Excellent.”
- Mad Mackeral, November 25, 2015
