| "one-woman New York punk-funk project Cannonball Jane lived up to the hype" New York Magazine
"An elementary school music teacher from Connecticut, Sharon Hagopian busts out the most effortlessly funky indie-rock G-slide not on the Go! Team’s new album." Spin
"CJ is the coolest one woman band I’ve heard in a long time. I love her recordings and can’t wait for more!" Kathleen Hanna of Bikini Kill/Le Tigre
"No wonder The Go! Team and Le Tigre are fans of this gal." Paste
"... her mix is interesting because it handily blends the rawness of garage rock with the control of both dance beats and synthesizer swirls. On her just-released EP, "Knees Up!," her quirky, sassy vocals lend the music an appealing playfulness - probably the quality that attracted Beastie Boy Ad-Rock to remix her well-titled original, "Take It to the Fantastic." The New York Post
"Then I gave her new EP a whirl and was left thirsting for more." Bust
"Frothy, infectious sampledelica...dreamy doo-wop oohs and aahs with old-school breaks and beats...it could all be a musical car crash, but charm and sassy beats win the day. And to complete this mini-masterpiece’s feel good credentials: by day Jane is a music teacher, Miss Hagopian, and she recorded it in her bedroom." The Times (UK)
"Half of Street Vernacular sounds like it should be blasting out of a
beat box down at the rough end of Sesame Street sometime in 1981, whilst the other half is more reminiscent of coy, mid-90s ladylike
Brit pop" NME
"Cannonball Jane purveys an inventive mishmash of hip hop beats and day-glo ’60s pop that suggests a female Beck weaned on The Ronettes and The Raincoats." Time Out London
"Delightful genre-blending pop" My Old Kentucky Blog
"What if The Shangri-Las dated Run-DMC? Cheap-o beats and Spectorian production flourishes provide the backdrop, but the glue that holds it together is Hagopian’s surprisingly lovely voice... " Splendid
"... an elementary school music teacher from suburban Connecticut who spends her off hours perfecting a perky blend of Beck-style sardonic electro hip-hop and the exuberant sugar rush of classic U.K. indie twee pop acts like Talulah Gosh." All Music Guide
"And should Ms. Hagopian choose to add Knees Up to her class syllabus the kids would get a fine introduction to a world where hip-hop starlight explosions merge with girl group galaxies somewhere deep out on the lounge dance floor nebula." Pop Matters
"It’sequal parts Go! Team, B-52’s, The Chiffons, St. Ettiene and Luscious Jackson injected with some wierd homage to TV soundtracks where the Theme From SWAT meets Sesame Street. Jane’s Knees Up! EP is easily the best record you can play at your next Twister party. And with a remix by the Beastie’s Ad Rock it makes it all the more fonkier. Dig it." Some Velvet Blog
"...a brilliant piece of hack n slash musical quiltery" Captains Dead
"Homemade, hip-hop-influenced indie pop...a very early contender for album of 2006." Tiny Voices
"****...sounds most unlike anything else you are likely to hear this year, which is a good start to 2006" What’s On In London
"A lo-fi world of home-recorded sampledelica that falls somewhere between the Beastie Boys and St. Etienne" Uncut |
