Bio: Ben Dickey and Drew Mills formed Blood Feathers in 2005 to perpetuate America's most important export, Rock n' Roll music. Sailing the same tradewinds that brought rhythm to the New World and shipped gospel, blues, and jazz back as a thank you note, Dickey and Mills write songs that snug into the... See Full Bio

"When the band took to the stage later in the evening, they did not even have to cajole the crowd into applause by knocking them off their feet with some fantastic opening song (which may have happened anyway). No, the cheers, calls, and whistles had started before the band even took to the stage... This is not saying that the unabashed adoration from the crowd was unwarranted, just unprecedented for an opening band at Black Cat’s backstage on a Thursday night. Blood Feathers sounds best—and looks like they are having the time of their lives—when they can all simultaneously let loose on their instruments, riding one cohesive wave of sound that fills the tiny stage with a raucous, warm sound you can’t help but dance to."

— WGTB Georgetown Radio

“ "Their latest release, Goodness Gracious, is a bold blend of rock influences, from Dylan to the Strokes (and of course Cash), and their performances are something to behold. In fact, the name of their album comes from the exclamation of a very young audience member after a show. Not really surprising, if that performance was anything like the one we had today. Multiple electric guitars, some very intense percussion, and enough energy for 2 1/2 bands…not to mention some very, very good songs–all of it combined to make one of the most energetic performances I’ve seen for a while."”

— WXPN

“ "Goodness Gracious," the second album from Philadelphia's Blood Feathers, is an old-school rock-and-roll record, filled with songs that are meant to be heard in old, rickety bars where bands play two sets and the only beer on tap is cheap and American. They'll play just one set at the Black Cat on Thursday, but that will be enough time to hear the group's sharp take on plenty of classic sounds, from rockabilly-tinged stompers to Bo Diddley-inspired romps to fuzzy psych folk. It's like a compilation of deep album cuts from lost records of 35 years ago.”

— The Washington Post

"Blood Feathers' real trick has been to fuse a wide variety of genres, from rock and blues to jazz and even gospel. The group's charming, gritty and hook-filled sophomore album, Goodness Gracious, finds Blood Feathers mixing all those elements to create something that still sounds like timeless American rock 'n' roll."

— NPR

"Goodness Gracious is an 11-song set that pools the duo's songwriting strengths... The sweetly tuneful album digs deeper into vernacular American music with swagger and style, evoking Bob Dylan on "Sugar in Bed" and nodding to Bo Diddly on "King Cotton & Little Star."

— The Philadelphia Inquirer
