Album Notes

"In the 5 songs that make up their impeccable new release, the Still Life EP, Mother Falcon is found at times broodingly hopeful in beautifully rendered string swells, while at others playfully arresting in unfamiliar melodic jaunts, abrupt and hanging stops, syncopated starts, and sing-song accents. Where many bands of similar size and intention fail, Mother Falcon has succeeded in writing songs which are refreshingly experimental in structure, smartly realized and that benefit rather than suffer from heavy-handed instrumentation. Nick Gregg, Tamir Kalifa and Claire Puckett create harmonizing, soaring vocals which provide strength to lyrics of youthful optimism and the messy aspects of love." - TapeBombs.com

"[Nick Gregg's] extraordinary vision of the classical pop landscape reveals a few milestones, such as the Incredible String Band and Brit folk-pop of the 1970s, with more cultivation from the likes of Joanna Newsom and Final Fantasy." - Austin Chronicle

"Somewhere out there where the Decemberists meet the Alejandro Escovedo Orchestra and wave to Poi Dog Pondering comes this divine aggregation." - Austin Chronicle
