Connected as Alexander Nelson (2935 friends)

"Some musicians are so good it makes me mad. Case in point: Alex Nelson"

-Autumn Sky, Midtown Monthly Magazine, April 2009

----------------------------------------
"Their sound is a reflection of their name: confident and honest, with the ability to lay down a screaming rocker then turn around and heartfully deliver a tender ballad...Seeing the band live is the only way to understand what everyone is talking about."

-Show review by Marty DeAnda, DigMusic, LLC 2-27-07
______________________________________________________

"A band that mixes genres like ska, rock, punk, country, and ragtime...A Very Talented Band"

-Mark Gilmore..98 rock Local Licks
______________________________________________________

"The band’s Telecaster-wielding frontman, (Alex Nelson) mines a musical lode decidedly older than his years."

-Jackson Griffith, Sacramento News & Review, Feb. 2008
______________________________________________________

"...A bass player from a punk band, a drummer from a jazz ensemble, and a singer/songwriter/guitarist with the soul of a folk singer effortlessly combine rhythms and melodies that draw from the old, mix with the new and come out with a sound all their own. "

-Megan Neves, Your Music Magazine, Issue 55, Dec-Jan 2008
______________________________________________________

"Their songs pay homage to great artists of the past while moving forward in a genre-mixing, fist-pumping affair that brings audiences of all ages to their feet."

-Laughlin, Andy. "Spotlight: Walking Spanish." Village Life 08-08-07: page 30
