Influences"...Nothing Feels Better than Blood on Blood..."

Sounds Like 11 on NPR's Great Musical Discoveries of 2007

40 on KEXP's Top 90.3 of 2007

10 on Three Imaginary Girls' NW Top 50 of 2007

"A hell of a record!"
- John Richards, KEXP's Associate Program Director

"Across the River" shows Shane getting dreamy and seasoned with patterns of warm acoustic guitar being picked behind his striking and resonant lyrical call. He's a singer, through and through. - Trent Moorman, The Stranger

"It’s like a fresh breath of air to hear them play... They pull sounds from many different music genres to keep it fresh and progressive. The instrumentations only add more color to songs about life and love... With their recent release "Hey Lazarus!", Shane Tutmarc & The Traveling Mercies are a band to keep your eye on!" - Barflies.net (SoCal Music Zine)

"An album you shouldn't miss." - TheBlackandWhiteMag.com (Canadian music zine)

"[Shane Tutmarc's] voice is strained, lending an urgency to his songs, which range from unironic country steps to finger-picked folk ramblers to piano-driven devotional songs."
- Brian J. Barr, Seattle Weekly

"I feel as though I’m present at the birth of rock and roll."
- Sound on the Sound.com Live Review

Hey amazing band with amazing band members,

Thanks for the shirt and CD and great performance in general. I hope the ice cream was deliiiiiish and worked better than the gatorade. Maybe you should mix them and make a gatorade float for your next show. Mm mm goooooood... not.

So, Kyle told you about my Top 25 songs on my personal iTunes. I just wanted you to know the following:

1. Air- Ce Matin La (with 129 plays)
2. Buzzcocks- Ever Fallen In Love? (74)
...
6.Elvis Presley- Suspicious Minds (57)
7.Dolour- Menage A Trois (56)
8.Electri Light Orchestra- Strange Magic (55)

Seeing you at The Rounds the other night Shane (and Brandon) made me feel really cozy and happy. It's so good to have you in our lives.

Thank you for all of the happy times!

XOXO
