"R&B and soul-inspired hits that'll make you wanna shimmy on the dance floor, run in place, and scream!" [San Francisco Bay Guardian]
"This five-piece Oakland band plays vintage R&B with a pinch of fiery punk that is sure to set everyone's feet ablaze, swinging and swaggering." [San Francisco Chronicle]
"The thing everyone said about the Struts was true, "You gotta hear this girl sing." I got chills hearing her while I was still walking in. She just tears a song up with her gritty snarling rock and soul styled wails, all the while seeming very nonchalant about it, like this is just what happens when she opens her mouth." [San Francisco Bay Times]
"The hottest, grittiest, rockinest Rhythm and Blues band on the planet" [Liz]
"The Struts are a five-piece, female fronted, full-throttle rhythm and blues outfit from Oakland, CA. They've got a high energy live show, a dedicated Bay Area fan base and an exciting "Rhythm-N-Grit" sound. Simply put... It's fast. It's loud. And when singer, Farrah Ancell, steps up to the microphone — when you hear her deliver that first note with all the grit and growl of a young Etta James — you'll know something serious is about to go down. It's punk rock in the juke joint and it swings like a mother."
