Sounds Like

"..."odd name, actually quite good"

Art Fist

"...a heady blend of barely contained indignance, vocal acrobatics and spikey guitars, catching them live is a treat"

The Leeds Guide

"...the template for their indelible indie-pop is taken from the likes of The Smiths and The Wedding Present - A good thing to these ears"

The Fly

“…this outfit's promise becomes undeniable. Their appealing, capricious and quintessentially British indie material is executed with great flair”

Leeds Music Scene – Live Review

"If this is what we can expect from Yonderboy on a first gig, the prospect of the band a little while on borders on the alarming"

World Alternative Music Guide

"A fantastic mix of melodies and upbeat strums made it impossible to stand still"

Sandman Magazine - Live Review

"Interesting lyrics, erratic enthusiasm and furiously catchy choruses. The people turning up later missed something special"

No-Title Magazine

"...frantic riffs and yelps offset mellow Death Cab for Cutie moments and give an edge to their upbeat indie-pop”

The Fly - Live Review

"Yonderboy - what a name and what a sterling performance, beautifully melodic. Spiky, angular guitars which seem to be able to play a million things at once. The lyrics are creative and full of emotive energy, quintessentially British indie"

steviekilgour.co.uk

"...a curious mixture of gentle 80’s jingling pop that’s been toughened up with slight elements of Math and just a few gentle hints of post rock – superb stuff"

AWESOME set at the Brudenell last night! First time I'd seen you and you were a last minute replacement so it was a really nice surprise. Loved your sound and the shifting time signatures, and everything else. Please come and play here in York! Send me a message if you'd like some ideas about venues. Tom / Towns And Houses.
