“Psych-pop up and comers” - Sam Weiss (Prefix Magazine)
“Adios Amigo’s dulcet indie pop songs sit well alongside bands like Broken Social Scene and Built To Spill.” - Emily Zemler (RCRD LBL)
“Happy, hopeful, celebratory music.” - Steven Short (NPR)
“Pure indie-pop bliss.” - Emily Savage (SF Bay Guardian)
“Adios Amigo’s music is like taking a happy pill; their pop melodies are like a loving hug.” - Tony DuShane (SF Chronicle)
“The self-titled EP is pure California dreaming: nostalgic, jangly music that makes you feel sun-soaked and happy.”
“Dreamy and soft, but possessing enough rhythm to warrant wave motions with your arm out a cruising car window, the album’s five tracks are over sooner than you’d like.” - Kyle Fortinsky (The Bay Bridged)
“This indie pop group bolsters itself with warm, murky harmonies and lovely, listless vocals. All four instrumentalists sing on every song, and the resulting music is more akin to British invasion-style rock than contemporary pop — three-part harmonies rather than a lead over backing vocals. Most tracks start with a tantalizingly drawn-out major seventh chord. Sometimes the musicians hover on one tonal center for an entire song, the same way a painter might obsess over a single color. They’re forgiven.” - Rachel Swan (East Bay Express)
“Adios Amigo’s music is more low-key than in your face, with subtle crescendos and washed out three-part vocal harmonies. It’s the perfect music for the end of a day at the beach, when the late afternoon sun pales everything to a light golden hue.” - Jackie Andrews (The Bay Bridged)
“A worthy addition to your summer mp3 mix…this release has a more stripped-back, simple and beautiful acoustic based folk vibe.” - Ron Cuellar (Heroes of Indie Music)
“Their self-titled EP is a perfect end of summer recording. Simply structured with washed out vocals and guitars varying between the boutique clean and 50′s reverb setting, the Adios Amigo EP is a beautifully modest effort that will help you enjoy the end of the sunny season. ” - Clif Watts (TheDadada)
“Starting off with a rollicking instrumental track, the rest of the self-titled EP continues to slow down as it progresses with a dose of mid-tempo jangle-pop and guitar work that sounds reminiscent of Red House Painters or The Sea and Cake. Each successive track feels mellower than the last: a good EP for the setting sun.” - Andrew McNair (OnlineRock.com)
