"There are many bands on the Columbus local scene that are notable, some that aren’t, and a few that I believe music lovers simply must pay attention to...Our Cat Philip is one of the latter."
-Life on the C-Bus.com
...their original songs were more exciting and exuberant anyway...with a cellist, violinist and
2 multi-instrumentalist (guitar, keyboard, drums) songwriters, they made me wish more older bands were
this outgoing and risky. Their youth was literally shown on their faces - but it was endearing and made
my jaded ears open up. Hopefully more folks will get the chance to check them out soon. -donewaiting.com
...Standout track “Call The Moon” leads on with a Broken Social Scene vibe and a wonderful conclusion. Check it out all the way to the end. The real gem here is “Time is Just A Healer for the Sick” Take my word for it. I can’t wait to see what these boys do next, right after they finish college.

"It’s tough to put Our Cat Philip into any specific category, but the band employs the sort of simple, twee-folk melodies that make people bob their heads from side to side instead of front to back."
-The Other Paper
"Max Sollisch writes songs with the emotional bareness of Elliott Smith, and like Smith, his permeating sadness shows through whatever shroud of pop accessibility and exuberant melody his band cooks up."

Hey, I just wanted to stop by to show you two of our new songs, "Almost Famous" and "She's Got It." If you get a chance, we'd love to hear what you think about the music.
My name is Ellie and I am Patrick O'Neil's little sister. I think we have met before, I have been to a couple shows. Pat got my hooked on your new album. It is fantastic!
Just wanted to say thanks for the great music! -EL
Hey strangers - excited to again share a stage. What are the basic details of the Ruby's show this Friday, as opposed to last Friday? How many bands, what order, cover, etc. Also, you got that request for the 45 pound bag of rare Guatemalan tangerines for our green room, right?
Indeed, indeed, dearest sweeties! It has been checked and the 22nd will also work. And so it will be. Hope to casually pass you up and down High St until then...
