"Pictures of Then is an amazing blend of reverent classicism and modern vision, …never showy, always tasteful and completely infectious." (Amplifier Magazine) "Helping to further shape the new Minneapolis sound," (PerfectPorridge.com). "Wherever you try to peg them on the musical landscape, their songs are always well-crafted and memorable." (HowWasTheShow.com) Pictures of Then “does their thing and they do it well.” (Guest List Magazine)
Pictures of Then have been described as an "amazing" and "fresh" live act. (Red Gorilla Music Fest & Crossroads Music Fest) Named among the top 11 Emerging Artists nationwide by Summerfest 09, "What is truly remarkable about this band is their range - both in Casey’s vocals, and also in the emotional contrast between songs." (Borangutan.com) "On stage they are dramatic without being pretentious, having a polished and confident stage presence" (HowWasTheShow.com) This comes as no surprise since the band is continually touring, attracting an ever-growing fan base at festivals, concert venues, and college campuses nationwide.
"On Pictures of Then’s 2007 debut, Crushed by Lights, the Minneapolis quintet seemed to be shining Billy Corgan’s flashlight through a 1966 Pink Floyd prism, projecting a gorgeous psychedelic pop rainbow across a Ziggy Stardust tour poster." (Amplifier Magazine) "Pictures of Then has so much more packed into their sophomore release …proving that they are well adept at composing music that speaks to a diverse crowd …Pictures of Then’s masterful mash-up of folk and rock will no doubt have listeners on board for a voyage." (Performer Magazine)
"Given the remarkably polished pop songcraft that Pictures of Then exhibit on And The Wicked Sea, here's a band that seems destined for bigger audiences and greater acclaim." (Decider Twin Cities, The Onion)
