"This stunner of a debut of doo-wop and soul is reminiscent of late 50s Flamingos, early 60s Sam Cooke, and a steady dose of proto-rock 'n' roll. Though these classics are WBY&C's inspirations, their own sound is not retro, but feels completely fresh and original. In addition to the wonderfully shaky vocals, the record features brilliant performances from such guests as Fred Thomas (Saturday Looks Good To Me), Jason Ajemian, Dan St. Clair, Aaron Siegel, Robbie Lee, Peter Evans, Jessica Pavone, and more." - INSOUND.com
