What others are saying...

EARFARM

"...unrepentantly upbeat and earnest...

a band that can get away with channeling Dexy’s Midnight Runners...

With only a self-titled EP to their name and a string of local shows with such fellow sunny rockers as Dinosaur Feathers and pow wow! (both EF faves), the Señors – Graham, Matt, and Vlad – are slowly carving out their own happy place amidst the concrete and frowns of the borough. Their sound recalls Bombadil’s homespun eccentricity as much as it does the otherworldly glam of Kevin Barnes and Of Montreal, which is to say their music runs the same sort of wide gamut their name implies…unless you come across French men who refer to themselves as señors on a regular basis?

"Holiday Records keep outdoing themselves...

So The Señors of Marseille is one of their latest releases. Most of their stuff has a similar easy going pop feel. Davey is a more uptempo song than what’s been coming out of Holiday Records lately and I was pleasantly surprised to hear this song from them. I wish I could tell you more about the band. I don’t know much. I know they’re from New York and that’s about it. But that’s OK, it never hurts to have some mystery in pop music right?"

Pop Tarts Suck Toasted

on Davey:

"Track of the Week: Holiday Records has done a good job of rounding up a bunch of the new generation of lo-fi bands, The Drums, Surfer Blood, and more, and the latest is The Señors of Marseille. I got this in an e-mail late last night that I think was meant for someone else, but every once in a while fortune shines down and gives you a nugget. This tune is a rollicking good time, not quite in step with all the other acts on Holiday Records, but absolutely worthy of your attention anyway. It's a little more pop (thanks to the piano and vocal harmonies) but in a very, very good way. Check it..

Grade: A"

Quiet Color

on cat scratch:

"Elvis Costello meets Jonathon Richman stylings... A tune so catchy you’ll be humming it in your sleep."

CMJ.com

"the music hums with the sun-splash jangle of California, with a hint of dark-art New York bubbling below the surface. In short, it's a sound accessible for every music lover."

" band that truly entertains... specializing in all things creative, unique and fun."

The L Magazine

"a harmony-driven trio with a weakness for baroque pop."

hipster collective

"really fun jams… well produced, catchy, warm, and unique. i also love love love the album art."

RadioStereoRadio

"Their music is so sweet you'll need an insulin shot. In a good way."

JOLBY: BANDS THAT WILL ROCK YOUR FACE

"It's hard to compare them to anyone because I truly think they have an original sound."

polaroid - un blog alla radio

In reference to the 9/11 Holiday Records release:

"Ci voleva proprio il primo lunedì grigio di pioggia di questo settembre per parlare della Holiday Records, gran bella net-label americana che quasi ogni settimana pubblica in free download singoli ed ep vari. L'iniziativa parte da Jacob Graham (qui il suo blog), già membro di Horse Shoes e The Drums, due band che su queste pagine abbiamo suonato già parecchie volte. Il "catalogo" finora è stato composto più o meno da amici o da gruppi incontrati in tour, così da raggiungere un sound omogeneo, abbastanza debitore di certo indiepop scandivano e di classici come Sarah, Postcard o Belle & Sebastian, ma si notano anche interessanti eccezioni, come i recenti The Señors Of Marseille."

Here, play pop!

"バンドの名前からはまったく想像できない、ニューヨークで活動する3人組。 Holiday Records のサイトで新しい曲が公開されてます。 ああ、またブルックリンからだわ。知らなかった... 昨年出してた the coolest girl in new york って曲もななかな素敵です。"
