Laura Stevenson & the Cans offer up "Sit Resist" as a free download through the end of May!
Early Press:
"Second album Sit Resist (out April 26) mixes a whimsical drizzle of accordions and glockenspiels and brass and banjos and other indie accoutrements with a punchy blast of old fashioned guitar muscle. First taste "Master Of Art" uses the tried-and-true "Be My Baby" beat to slowly drive a reflective song into explosive Florence territory--a powerful blast of belting, bursting jangle-punk." Village Voice
"[Laura Stevenson & the Cans] is a tinge of Joanna Newsom minus the harp, Kate Nash if Kate Nash was cool and hell, let's even throw some Jewel in there circa those years she lived in the truck." RCRD LBL
"Once she truly lets rips with that lovely voice of hers, we’re left powerless to resist." Wears The Trousers
"Let's talk about how awesome Laura Stevenson is. First, there's her voice. It's a wonderful mix of confidence and precociousness—she can quietly sing soft lullabies, but she can also carry the climactic moments of more passionate anthems." The Stranger
"At SXSW in what is essentially a sea of indie rock bands, Laura and her band really stood out."Stereophile
"Laura Stevenson has music in her blood." Spinner.com naming the band to the top 100 acts of SXSW
"Laura Stevenson's work is always a little bit strange, a little bit sad, and a lot stellar." The Ruckus
