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

“masterfully crafted, undeniably catchy" – Performing Songwriter

“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

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.

~Much Love
