“a wonderfully creative band”
- Adam Graham (Evolution Radio 107.9, Vancouver)
“I’m impressed.
They’re like a jazzy group I’d choose as cruise ship entertainment (and I mean that in the best possible way). Great use of the flute, it’s a nice touch. I’d keep an eye on this band, and try to make it out for their next show.”
- Lauren Eldridge (BackstageVancouver)
“Two Apple Tobacco is
a bright beacon of weirdness.”
- Shawn Conner (FULL REVIEW at GuttersnipeNews.com)
“Well meaning, talented, and excellent lyrics.”
“Musicianship is solid. Nice energy and vox are well utilized.”
“Good groove and I liked the way you connected with the crowd.”
“Certainly risky, but often the biggest risk means the biggest reward….It’s a very interesting position to be in, and kudos to you for finding it.”
- anonymous judges (2006 Shindig Battle of the Bands)
“The bands this year were all unique, and a lot of them were very off-putting. I loved them for that. The band that fit that description especially well were night five competitors, Two Apple Tobacco.
They drove me as far as I could go upon hearing them for the first time. That’s usually a good thing for me.
If it takes a while to appreciate a band’s sound, it’s been proven that I will like them better in the long run. They sounded like a cross between The Molestics and Les Georges Leningrad. They put quite an emphasis on the sounds of ragtime and old tunes of yore, and then they beat on it for a good while.”
