Zammuto
“Dexterous musicianship and catchy pop writing are upgraded to hyper-reality… Zammuto blasts us with musical particles in narrow, swarming beams; each grain rendered with hallucinatory clarity…His joy upon discovering that he still had music to make is evident,
and highly contagious.”— Brian Howe (Pitchfork)

“The Austin duo and proud transplants from Toronto are loud, aggressive and bluesy…they get comparisons to the Black Keys.”
