"If your New Year's Eve dance card calls for, well, dancing, the best band to bring on the booty shaking has to be The Move It Move It. An energetic blend of Afropop, reggae and electronica coaxes even those with two left feet right out of their seats."

— Carolyn Fox, Seven Days

"In my humble opinion, these cats are the hottest band to come out of Burlington in 2010. They're some kind of mix between afropop, reggae and techno-rock. Their sound is crisp, clean, original....The Move It Move It are worth having on your radar."

— Benjy Adler, Owner of Burlington, VT Restaurant/Music Venue - The Skinny Pancake

“Movin' On Up "In certain corners, “funky” is a four-letter word. But Burlington’s the Move It Move It are converting even the most left-footed frowners with simmering elements of Afrobeat, reggae and pop. Their steamy, danceable stew has stirred up quite a local buzz in recent months. Maybe because the band puts the f-u-n in funky? Whatever the reason, TMIMI wrap up a monthlong residency at Nectar’s this Tuesday.""”

— Dan Bolles, Seven Days
