THE YELLOW MOON BAND:
Moments of glory abound on this bright, funky and outstandingly groovy album. - **** Mojo
Welcome to the best new rock band of 2009 - Perhaps the most significant instrumental act Blighty has produced since the Ozric Tentacles - ****1/2 subba-culture.com
The Yellow Moon Band have created a heady stew of groovy psych rock, folk and the occasional slab of Brit Invasion rock. All of which could be a mess in lesser hands, but the instrumental capabilities of the four-piece makes Travels a choogling joy. - **** musicomh.com
I can well imagine people watching this in awe in a live setup. - Kruger Magazine
This needs a sticker on it that says 'Now you're jammin'!' - Plan B
If you're after a dose of decadent escapism, look no further. - Rocksound
It's not even January and I'm looking forward to seeing this record at the top of writers End of Year lists. - Shindig
