“The Twangshifters LIVE!!! on KGW Channel 8 Portland OR”

— Video Producer, Free Summer Concert @ Mt. Tabor Park

“The Twangshifters CD Review!!! Excerpt: "The Twangshifters are making noise with class and brash to spare. If you like rockabilly that is faithful to original form. They're awesome!”

— Larry Toering, Music Street Journal

“The Twangshifters — Are one of those bands you stumble across one night on a bender and never forget. Playing stripped down, no-nonsense rockabilly, blues and rock ’n’ roll, they’re the love children of Carl Perkins and Patsy Cline,and plan to celebrate the release of their smokin’ hot debut CD at a jam replete with burlesque dancers (including national champ Holly Dai) and lots of slicked-back hair types. This is not a party for timid souls or indifferent hipsters, so leave the attitude at home and bring a pack of filterless ciggies for the breaks in between.”

— Rob Cullivan, Portland Tribune

“The Twangshifters: rockabilly sans cliches Excerpt: "From celebrating the excesses of the weekend ("Friday Night") and mythologizing car culture ("Black and Chrome," "Polish Me Up") to the required love-gone-wrong numbers "Sad and Lonely" and "Goodbye," the disc makes a convincing case that rockabilly isn't so much a genre of rock as it's the onetime musical superpower the other commonwealth genres pay homage to."

— Curt Schulz, The Oregonian

“I sure wish I had been early. Simply put, I’ve experienced no higher-octane, completely-detailed local rockabilly show. I’m satisfied that The Twangshifters are quickly approaching the conventions of a national-caliber act... Click link to read more!”
