REVIEWS:
“The guys of Arizona are weird. Then again, the oddity of their sound and style may be their very best attribute. Their album Glowing Bird is lush with creative instrumentation, while lead-singer Ben Wigler’s lithe voice seems to float through the music like a dry leaf in the wind.” – Paste
“Arizona’s songs seem simple, but a close listen to these inventive and infectious songs… reveals surprisingly complex layers and textures.” – NPR
“Vocal harmonics and maximum guitar shreds were surely the order of the night.... Arizona displayed an infectious joy while they performed, a joy emboldened by the members’ obvious talent....” – Relix
“I was shocked at how good these guys were playing live.” – Dave Allen, Gang of Four / Pampelmoose
Nick! Great to meet and hear you guys, awesome set as well! Have fun on the rest of your tour... I have your CD on here at as220 as I type!! Keep in touch mikey
i'm great... Sad story actually. I don't think i will be wearing the yellow..pink hoodie as much anymore. It kinda took a turn for the worse and fell apart on me. Damn the luck.
WOW I am listening to Glowing Bird for the first time and you dudes are BLOWING MY MIND!!! This amazing and unlike anything I have ever heard and truly truly truly beautiful. THANK YOU. xoxoxox Amanda
Great show at Plush & so good to see you guys! Sorry I missed saying goodbye, had to leave because of the crazy car crash scene. I definitely think your next stay in Tucson needs to be ALOT longer, which should include some bbq's & Monsoons:) Enjoy the rest of your tour.
