"Mother Hips ARE California Soul. With their blend of Country, Rock, and Bluegrass, these guys are like a time bomb waiting to explode. I've been following them and seeing them perform since the early '90's up in Chico, CA. The growth that they've made as a band is incredible. They definitely took a step of faith with this album, producing it on their own label. Like everything else these guys do, it works and works well. Tired Wings and Gold Plated are almost always on the set lists at shows. With the addition of their not so new drummer(not new anymore), their sound has evolved yet once again. Their previous three releases are all very unique and if I may dare say, even better than Later Days. Their new one is coming out late February and it WILL be great. If you ever get a chance to see them live, TAKE IT. The energy and presence they create on stage is electric and contagious. I gaurantee you will leave the show hummin and strummin down the street."

"If you go to motherhips.com, you can purchase this item for $15 new. Plus they have a bunch of other merch, and the money goes straight to the band. Don't waste your money on some capitalist ass selling it for $99."

As good as it gets...

"One of THE great bands, yet far below the radar. This indy release follows an unceremonious dumping by Rick Rubin's Def American label, and the Hips are in top form. The lyrics are impeccable, the songs smooth and rocking. If you can't fall for the first few lines of "Esmerelda" alone, you're dead to the world: "Tell me what is wrong, and I'll put it in a song, and I'll play it on the stage/Show me where it hurts, and I'll write it down in words, and I'll play it on the stage." Keep writing it, keep playing it. Get to buying it..."
