Album Notes

A 12-course breakfast of soulful, retro pop -- if you like Jamiroquai, Beck, Lenny Kravitz, or Mr. Stevie Wonder back in the day, you need to listen to these songs now. Deeply funky, seriously feel-good, and high in cholesterol.

"It takes some daring to pump out a heavy dance-groove, funk inflected CD in this era of teenage DJ metal groups. It's even more impressive when a band battles the groove police head on with a tactical triumph. NYC-based Yes Virginia reminds me of George Clinton joining forces with The Brand New Heavies and letting the Dust Brothers mix it all up. Quite frankly, these guys (and girl) have more soul in them than most, and their cleverly composed tunes can do everything from guiding you up into a good mood to driving the party into the late night hours. Are you serious about gettin' down? So is Yes Virginia, and as wah-guitar, giddy keyboards and one mean-ass bass line deliver, you'll be unconsciously caught up in all the ruckus. If your record collection includes labels like Motown, Moonshine and Ideal, here's another number that shouldn't be passed up."

A long-time fan of the band (and the bands previous history as Random House of Soul), i was anxious to hear the complete CD of Overeasy. It does not dissapoint. A must have for super-pop and funk fans.

An unbelievable, new incarnation of the spirit of classic, soulful funk. Yes Virginia has come out with an amazing CD that I keep playing again and again. Amazing, fun, and more than worth it. When's the concert?

What a find. This group sounds like its members listened to a lot of Steely Dan and 70's Motown--like they're channeling Billy Preston. Great musicianship! Infectious grooves, clever lyrics!

From the first time I heard Matt Stone and his partners in crime, they were all about bringing together all of the elements of the music I love, and making the combination into something irresistible, to both the ears and the feet. I'm much more than delighted to hear the evolution of that sound and that vibe. Air-tight grooves, Tasty tones, Candy for your head!!! Yes Virginia, you make it sound over easy!!
