Bio: Angela Perley & The Howlin' Moons formed in 2009 around singer-songwriter Angela Perley. The group consists of Chris Connor, Billy Zehnal, Steve Rupp, and Perley.

"Perley and her Moons have a highly stylized and nostalgic sound, paying homage to The Flying Burrito Brothers, Wanda Jackson and mid-2000s alt-country all at once."

— Emily Votaw, WOUB Music Blog

"At the time, I couldn't seem to figure out exactly what music type the group fit into because they had a strong country folk sound for the vocals, but the guitar had more of a rock and bluegrass vibe. Collectively, the band was a mix of many elements that, as I later discovered the new genre, encapsulated Americana music perfectly."

— Katie Pinter, ACRN

"Since forming in 2009, Perley and her band have made a name for themselves in Columbus and have received some airplay overseas on the BBC. Next month, they'll hit the road on a tour of the South that includes a performance at Austin, Texas' South by Southwest music festival (SXSW)."

— Bryan Gibson, WOUB Music Blog

"Angela Perley & the Howlin' Moons like to veer all over the Americana spectrum, but for their latest video they've planted firmly in rock 'n' roll territory."

— Chris Deville, Columbus Alive

"Five songs all of which are immensely gratifying. The opening I Like You Fine has a huge sound with organ and soaring guitar combining to lift the spirits. She then betters this on the boogie belter that is Come On Home. Be Bad is turbo charged with the band barrelling along while Weeping Coyote captures in its five and a half minutes all that is best about a tight Americana rock band with superb organ and guitar licks and solos flying out of the speakers. The one ballad Fireside still packs muscle while portraying Perley's more sensitive side. Best of all however is her voice which recalls Maria Muldaur in her heyday."

— Paul Kerr, Blabber n' Smoke

"One of the most shining talents here in Columbus."

— Jon Peterson, Shakin It Radio

"sugared vocals"

— Joel Oliphint , The Other Paper

"Angela is a total original, thoroughly unique; Cross between Michelle Shocked and Lucinda Williams and that's a heavy compliment in itself."

— Jon Peterson , Shakin It Radio

"Perley and the boys do take one detour to rock harder than ever on “Be Bad.”"

— Chris Deville , The Columbus Dispatch

"breathless folk balladry and skipping country rave-ups"

— Chris Deville , The Columbus Dispatch

“ "Their new EP "Yellow Moon" highlights Perley's unique, country-tinged voice and fine songwriting and will rock you out." ”

— Eric Leighton , The Athens News

"Perley is a peach, delightful songs and an uplifting motif."

— The Athens News

"comparisons of a similar ilk can be drawn between Angela Perley and the likes of Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn."

— Emily Votaw, ACRN The Rock Lobster

"Spunk and variety are two of Perley's core strengths, and "Yellow Moon" amplifies those attributes. Songs that presumably began as acoustic sketches get serious backbone from the band, allowing Perley to let her charisma run wild without running off the rails. Lonesome ballad "Little Heart" shows she can hold her own minus the fanfare."

— Chris DeVille , Columbus Alive

"Angela Perley was another pleasant surprise, bopping her way through sassy saloon ramblers and an exotic ballad or two with her crack band the Howlin' Moons."

— Chris Deville, Columbus Alive

“ "Angela Perley makes rollicking, soulful music influenced by records from her childhood and her time in Appalachia." ”

— Kevin Joy, The Columbus Dispatch

"With influences such as Woody Pines & Loretta Lynn, they've created classic Americana tunes that could have been played within the swinging doors of a saloon or on your grandfather's old antique radio."

— Hannah Cook , ACRN Radio

"Veteran Columbus performers Angela Perley and the Howlin' Moons bring a gritty, backroads approach to Perley's original songs. They appeal to fans of Love & Theft-era Bob Dylan and Lucinda Williams. Much younger than those worthies, Perley sounds adventurously observant."

— Don Allred, 614 Magazine/ January 2010 issue

"After writing nearly 80 songs in the past year, Angela has worked intently on honing her old timey sound. She likes recording at home all in one take, sometimes on her porch to get birds in the background or in her bathroom for extra reverb."

— Alexandra Kelley , Columbus Underground
