"One of the most compelling records of the year, songs of broken hearts and broken voices, the sound of someone picking himself up off the floor, hoping he won''t fall down again, and knowing he will." Dallas Observer
Pleasant Grove''s live performances are known for being subtle, thoughtful, full of melody and restraint. Their sound combines elements of Bedhead and Pavement while having a sound all their own.
"Shimmering majestic pop or lethargic country music. Take your pick. Slow and tranquilizing but not hushed and quiet, Pleasant Grove''s brokenhearted epics are full of emotional potency (and eccentricity) full of sonic depths and textures." https://www.tradebit.com
