"The Pendulum Hearts have always benefitted from a self-deprecating sense of lyrical humor that allows them to not take themselves too seriously. Which perfectly complements the Austin duo’s double shot cocktail of Western Swing and Honky Tonk, because come on…the music makes you want to two-step, not be bummed out by poignant confessions."
Jack Anderson, KUTX 98.9
"When it comes to keeping Austin weird, the Pendulum Hearts take the crown. With a unique blend of Gypsy Jazz and Texas Swing they’re keeping the artistic spirit of Austin alive and well."
Texas Chill Country
"Every so often you hear a song for the first time and you just connect with it instantly, that's what happened to me the first time I heard "A Man with a Plan", it's like the band reached into my soul and put it to music. I connected so instantly I may just consider this my theme song, if nothing else I'll never be able to walk into a convenient store, gas station or liquor store to buy beer without singing this song in my head, maybe even out loud and I am good with that!"
Gabe Reynolds, Sun Radio 100.1
"Let's talk about the most surprising and most fun band of the evening... Pendulum Hearts came with their show pants on, complete with upright bass, fiddle & train gang snare. My first immediate thought was 'I wanna ride in a van with these guys.' There's not really a singular box to put them in. It's bass driven funk, it's moonshine meets New Orleans. It's Surf Swing. Their blues had your neck swanging while their western waltzes were fun & heating up the dirt dance floor."
Pina Taylotta Petals
"I really enjoyed the fun writing and excellent musicianship on 'A Man with a Plan'. The production was well done and the delivery reminded me of Charlie Daniels with a swing style of Asleep At The Wheel…so it's in really good company."
