“The Stagger Rats capture the mood of the world right now: they are tremendous musicians that write all their own material, above all they combine genuine artistic integrity with a quirky sense of fun. ”

— Peter Grundberg - co-founder of WP Ents , Peter Grundberg

“...after seeing the band live last night I want to record them. This band has the potential to make an incredible first album: real, timeless, proper rock n roll. Great songs. Great songs with two distinctive vocalists. This band can be superstars (in the best possible way...) ”

— Owen Morris - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owen_Morris, Owen Morris

“The crowd are pretty squiffy, so by the time these chaps from Scotland’s capital wind up their set eyes are blurred and bopping feet are sore, but ears have been treated.”

— Chris Cope, CLICK MUSIC.COM

“Music-News new favourite unsigned band, The Stagger Rats are definitely a Friday night party band. With energy and enthusiasm to rival The Fratellis or The View, The Stagger Rats capture in their set tonight, all that is good about the Scottish unsigned music scene."”

— Music News.com

“They have it all – the look, the chemistry, stage presence, a unique sound and with no obvious front man they swap vocals freely giving each track an inimitable sound. Underlying Scottish accents which surface to full effect in “Small Town Tale” and “Fuzzy Fuzzy” coupled with a lack of affection add a soulful edge and pull the band out from the indie jeans masses. They have fashioned together a sound that is timeless, but also intriguingly fresh and unique. There is a real, unsinkable feeling that this band could do something truly remarkable this year. ”

— Beth Eckersley, The BIg Issue

“With their Scottish accents, sharp suits and unmistakable swagger, they are quite unlike any other Scottish band in this list. This stuff is really rather good.”

— Sunday Times

“Edinburgh’s “The Stagger Rats”. A band who casually rattle out a modern twist on sixties styled psychedelia. The duel vocals they use allow them to broaden the range of the material that they have and truth be told it’s all pretty impressive. Definitely a band to keep an eye out for. YROCK (O2 Academy): "It is 1955, Fonzy is King and they are still making movies like they used to: this is the type of feeling that you get while watching The Stagger Rats. The music pays homage to that of the past whilst keeping in touch with modern influences of today. Everything here is done for a reason and as a result The Stagger Rats come across as one of the most musically talented bands in the Scottish music scene today.”
