"This record is two minutes and six seconds of lo-fi, high-intensity fun,... and should be checked out by anyone and everyone with a weakness for precocious, attitudinal punk thrills."
--Drowned in Sound UK

"These kids are heroes."--NME

"...the coolest young band in the world right now."--Observer Music Monthly

"...remarkable"--Newsweek Magazine

Brooklyn, New York pre-teen punk rock sensations Tiny Masters of Today are comprised of fourteen year old Ivan and his twelve year old sister Ada. The pair began writing music in the summer of 2004 when Ada was only eight. In the intervening years, their sound has matured to the point where several songs actually exceed one minute in length.

Their influences are surprisingly diverse, ranging from the Ramones to Abba, but their inventive writing, arrangements, and playing are uniquely their own. Youth is certainly part of their charm but only to the extent that it contributes to the generally unaffected ambience. Amidst the general youthful exuberance is a refreshingly anti-authoritarian stance which spares nobody, from elementary school cliques to the President of the United States.

The Tiny Masters of Today are a refreshing breath of fresh air in a stale rock and roll world.
