LUEGO
"I cannot emphasize enough how the sincerity of Phelan's lyricism makes this album a cut above. If you can appreciate alt-country sounds like Wilco and Blitzen Trapper, you'll also appreciate Taped-Together Stories." -Tara Lacey, Performer Magazine
"Ocho thrives on trying more. Influences are a burden. Finally folding them until they're beneath your tunes rather than simply on top of them—which Luego does on Ocho—is an accomplishment that can't be understated."-Grayson Currin, The Independent
And some feedback of our own... "Ocho relies much more heavily on background harmonies and a thicker and deeper sound that is stacked with layer upon layer of grooviness and cool. The bluesy ruggedness and heartfelt emotion of Phelan’s voice is still present but the album seems to be much more of a family affair and holds a certain friendly attire about it...."
SCHOONER
"...rarely has a sibling relationship created something this harmonious....swooning vintage pop, fuzzy Guided By Voices-ish rock and
woozy Sinatra/Hazlewood-like country for an overall effect that's equal parts dreamy, deadpan and doomed." -Rebecca Raber, CMJ
"This is the best, most balanced material by Schooner yet...Sonically, lyrically and structurally, Schooner supplies a perfect mix of apathy and anguish to these songs, and there's no better conduit for such than the voice of Reid Johnson.-Grayson Currin, The Independent
Tune in this Thursday, September 30 at 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. to hear a full interview with Luego! Schooner might show up too so listen in!! See you on Thursday, friends!
