Praise for The Morning Benders:

"Rarely has a debut album sounded so fresh and endearing — without your suspecting the writer copped somebody’s songbook — as the morning benders’ "Talking Through Tin Cans."
-Kevin Bronson, LA Times

"The very youthful looking band manages to convey an early Beatles sense of optimism with sweet undertones. Expect big things from them in the future."
-Kyle MacKinnel, Filter Magazine

"This Bay Area band manage to appropriate Pavement's smirking shamble to their own lovesick, non-smartass ends."
-Stephen M. Deusner, Pitchfork Media

"The youthful quartet, who've been successfully campaigning for the title of SF's new indie rock darlings, charmed their way through their early Beatles-y repertoire for their first big Noise Pop show so winningly we could almost hear the Wonder Years voiceover as they left the stage."
-Melissa Goldstein, Spin Magazine

"This group has no shortage of hooks and crescendos, and with a lighthearted indie pop style familiar enough to capture anyone's attention and enough creativity to hold it, they stand out from their peers."
-Kimberley Chun, San Francisco Bay Guardian

"Sort of like a real morning bender, except a lot more catchy and a lot less likely to make you eat something greasy for lunch."
-Stereogum



Their new album is out now and we can't wait to see them perform at 3:45pm at The Bay Area Takeover Thursday, March 19th.
