Bio
.. "The Adventures of You Me & Iowa takes all of the best elements of rock, indie, and pop music and blends them into something wholly accessible, yet undeniably smart and rewarding. I may be speaking too soon, but this just might be a near perfect pop/rock album, and one of the best albums I’ve heard this year." .. - ..Delusions of Adequacy.. .. .. "[You Me & Iowa] sits comfortably between The Beach Boys and Of Montreal, skirting the psychedelic electronica of the latter and erring on the side of a Harvard educated version of the former. [Like] Vampire Weekend, these boys fill this album to the brim with catchy hooks, tight harmonies and snappy guitar riffs." .. .. Amplifier Magazine .. .. .. "Driven by tightly interlocked guitar and keyboard lines, the Los Angeles-based quintet's effective blend of danceable pop melodies is adorned with Andrew Carroll's vocals, which sometimes follow the lead of David Byrne and Paul Simon." .. .. Flaunt Magazine .. .. .. "Every summer must be accompanied by an album [...] This summer, it’s The Adventures of You Me & Iowa." .. "An album that never slows, sinks, or ever sounds anything like any other band on the scene." .. .. The Source Weekly.. .. ..

hey! just wanted to say we love you!
will you please come to the east coast, like georgia?
Hey, what's up?
Hi how are you doing?
I thought I should pass this quote along;
"It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness, of pain: of strength and freedom.
The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature and everlasting beauty of monotony." ~Benjamin Britten
I hope whatever you are listening to, you are cranking it!
Karen :)
Camai Hello from far out Alaska!
Peace,
Steve Sutherlin
