DAVE WOLFE / Press

“His ability to keep cool and sound dangerous at the same time won me over.”

Scene ‘Zine

“Exuberant and wildly fun, no party should be without him.”

Stylus

“One of the state’s hardest-working and best-dressed combos, The Vibro Champs play rockabilly without nostalgia or mothballs. They are the most infectious band in the Twin Cities!”

The Minneapolis Star Tribune

“The Twin Cities has a proud tradition in rockabilly that dates back to the likes of Eddie Cochran and the Fendermen. A strong but understated rootsy undercurrent exists today, and most of that charge comes from The Vibro Champs, the swingingest, swaggeringest roots combo in the Midwest. The Champs have fine-tuned a stylized brand of roots rock that’s anything but nostalgic or retro; their rousing rockabilly brew is spiced with smoldering shades of blues, a hint of jazz, country crooning interludes and cascading waves of surf guitar... The Twin Cities has produced a healthy batch of rockabilly bands, but The Vibro Champs are the best.”

Skyway News

“The Vibro Champs are one of the few bands in town out to court an audience whose main intention is to have fun. And almost by default. The group’s hopped-up blend of rockabilly, surf, hillbilly and swing provides an antidote to the Novocaine-numbed souls of pop nation.”

Saint Paul Pioneer Press

“Some of the hippest guitar sounds this side of Link Wray... More style surprises than a mirror maze... This band is always sharp as a tack.”

The Reader (Critics Choice)

“Most nightclub fun in the Twin Cities. The local Rockabilly bible. The Twin Cities’ most passionate rockabilly champions.”

City Pages (Critics Choice)

“The Vibro Champs are the state’s latest big beat export.”

Garage Pile

“The rumors of the death of Rockabilly have been greatly exaggerated. The Vibro Champs are vibrant examples that the genre is still alive and kicking.”

Tail Spins

“Exuberant and wildly fun, no party should be without him.”

Stylus

“Smart enough to depart from the program...”

Isthmus (Critics Choice)

“The brightest light burning on the Midwest roots/rockabilly scene”

Muse News

“I’ll take anything I can get from these guys.”

Cake

“Dave Wolfe's CD has taken up permanent residence in my car.”
