"The five tracks are laden with the kind of adroit songwriting that will soon separate Scott from folk imitators." - Pop Matters

"Scott’s voice is sincere and optimistic, making the somber tracks seem more hopeful than heart heavy, yet the songs are rich with melodies and elaborate instrumentation recalling the best of the Michigan’s folk scene." - Record Dept.

"Each of the five songs comprising the 22 minutes of the album are thoughtful and compelling, and if you haven't heard them already, you owe it to yourself to do so." - Chewing Gum For the Ears

"...If you want to listen to some really good indie folk, don’t wait and give White Pines a try." - Common Folk Meadow

"Fans of Bon Iver and the like take note." - Tandem Shop

"...upon listening to the music I could have sworn I saw a couple of grey-white wolves peeking curiously at me through a screen door. Sniffing around and disappearing, they leave me with a feeling of wonder, hope and rejuvenation that transcends any particular season, much like the music itself." - Laughing Evergreens

"The songs are lushly well-recorded and touchingly well-written. Heavy with feeling, this is just a small taste of what this guy can do with a words, music and emotion." - One Sweet Song

A ten-song LP

"This record is the next installment in a long and illustrious history of roots and Americana music coming from the Lansing area. Believe me though, the bar for creativity and beauty has just been raised a couple of notches." - Kalamazoo News

"An Army Life is a quantum leap in artistry for this talented duo, as the songs are well written, simply produced and allowed to flow with space and relaxed tempos." - Sound the Sirens

"An Army Life is one of the most beautiful folk discs of the year, ten titles absolutely without fault..." The Man of Rennes Steals Our Hearts

"An Army Life, the new album from That's Him! That's The Guy!, is what you wish your college roommates sounded like when they got drunk and started playing guitar. Clear, unpolished vocals harmonize over little more than plucked guitar and banjo, calling to mind an earthier Oh No! Oh My! or Kings of Convenience." - 5 Acts

"I received in the mail this week the new album from That's Him! That's the Guy! In short, it is fucking amazing." - Sam Lowry

“…this outfit has been tucked away in the less-than-friendly confines of Detroit for more than a year, writing, recording and performing music that stands alone among its contemporaries.” - UR Chicago

5 Stars - “Sincere pop poetry — rough and tumble punk influences mixed with classy R&B and swinging, sultry blues ballads: piano melodies and steady riffs that have illustrious, melodramatic urgency on certain heart-stirring epics, freewheeling, accelerative pop-top catchiness on the danceable tunes and a hazy, mischievous macabre/punk on some of the edgier areas — altogether a grand narration.” – Real Detroit Weekly

TH!TTG! - Help Me, I'm on Fire

Only $5 exclusively on iTunes and other digital outlets

A six-song EP

"Apart from any colorful exaggeration, this is a damn good EP that left me wanting more." - Sound the Sirens

"The lyrics conjure up images of long winter nights in a small town and mirrors feelings of melancholy and isolation. These sombre lyrics are contrastly paired with slightly more optimistic music, and it is this combination that makes the songs relatable yet inviting." - Villains Always Blink

"The songs themselves are personal to the point of grimace, with brutal honesty winning the day here..." - Another Form of Relief

"Think for a second, what happens when pop drops its superficiality and the folksy thing loses the pretentious coffeehouse atmosphere." - You Ain't No Picasso

"That’s Him! That’s the Guy! Have put together a disc that reminds me of a well-written, enigmatic short story – just enough to leave you pleased and still curious at the same time." - Muses Muse

"You know That’s Him! That’s The Guy! is going to be good because they have TWO exclamation points in their name." - The Best Week Ever

Member Since:

Members:

Joseph Patrick Scott is a songwriter finding his sea legs again, after extensive touring as a member of almost too many bands to count (most notably Canada, That's Him! That's The Guy!, and Saturday Looks Good To Me). The songs are hopeful and introverted, but with the melodies and elaborate instrumentation one would expect from this member of Michigan's fruitful folk scene.

Recluse - 005

Recluse is a hard-charging band of New York City natives bringing rock to Manhattan in the tradition of Television and the Strokes. They play frequent gigs around the East Coast and have slaved to build a sturdy fan base in their hometown. Poised to break through the clutter and clatter of so many bands who put style before chops, they are all substance.

Dylan James Brock - 004

Dylan James Brock has been writing music and lyrics for about ten years now. His lyrics are as studied as his background would suggest: Mr. Brock has an MFA in Creative Writing and has worked with such award winning authors as Peter Carey and Salman Rushdie. His music comes from years and years of teaching himself when no one else would. Don't worry. It's better than that might make him sound.

That's Him! That's the Guy! - 003 - 001

That's Him! That's the Guy! make indie folk songs that some people like, and others not so much. They are comprised of Joseph Scott (of Canada the 7 member band, not the 31 million-plus member country), and David Martin (of no particular note). They are also a proud sponsor of The 2010 Winter Olympics, and enjoy rescuing puppies from terrible, terrible fates. They solemnly promise not to throw any heavy or sharp objects at you.

FREER - 002

A Detroit based rock quartet who left the garage to craft their sound in the dark shadows of Motown. Equal parts MC5 and Smokey Robinson, this funky foursome is creating music that is as soulful as it is punk, and as original as it is addictive.

The Hill Ensemble

The most etheral electronic music this side of the monolith. Nick Adams and company channel the spirit of an ape with a bone aloft, ready to strike down the nattering simians too foolish to use tools. Let them score your deep space visions and late night comedowns.

Emily Groves

Ms. Groves is an Austin, Texas based singer/songwriter, philosopher and Language Arts Special Force. She comes to us from Austin by way of Traverse City, MI, by way of Santa Monica, CA.
