"Banks' melodies are beautifully mezmerizing."
-The Austin Chronicle
"Songwriter Paul Banks, 24, is another Austin force to be reckoned with . . . His favorite songwriter is Paul Simon, but Banks' voice has supreme range. He can go from sounding like a folk-singer Strokes frontman to a gorgeous Roy Orbison to stripped down Muse. There is an epic sweep to Banks' songs . . ."
-San Antonio Express News SXSW Write-up
"Soaring and dare I say angelic vocal stylings, which easily split the difference between Thom Yorke and Jeff Buckley. I’d be lying if I said I’m not absolutely floored by this man’s singing, and I have yet to hear a sour note leave his lips . . . His band was quite impressive as well, they not only played well but managed to keep up with Banks’ vocal acrobatics with flawless harmonies."
-Whoopsy Magazine
"...managed to put together eight tracks that confidently tell their stories with a charm and melodies that stick in your head. I've been whistling "Live to Share" for a week now, and I'm okay with that."
-Austin Sound
