New battering ram drummer Tony Franco joins bassist Anders Kapur to add an extra rhythmic wallop, together fueling inventive guitarist Hunter Lombard’s stinging yet anthemic leads. Meanwhile, Kapur’s sister Sofie’s gorgeous, expressive singing is a revelation, combining a punk/new wave edginess and youthful vivaciousness with the command and confidence of a seasoned jazz vocalist.

— Kimberly Lightbody , New York Press

““Angular indie-rockers The NowhereNauts sound like the Long Blondes covering Pavement.” ”

— Time Out New York
