Influences
"The Pica Beats own autumn"-Eric Grandy, The Stranger
"A Wes Anderson soundtrack waiting to happen"- Spin Magazine
"I knew a kid who was considered PICA, which in psychological terms means that he liked to eat inedible things, like soap and plants. The irresistible harmonies of the Pica Beats on their amazing debut album are so delicious, they make me wanna eat the CD. That’s a good thing." –William F. Taft (www.irtmag.com)
