Piney Gir – the London-based, Kansas-raised indie pop artist who was not
allowed to listen to pop music until the age of 14 – is earning raves
for ‘Mr. Hyde’s Wild Ride’ (Greyday) as she supported the national tour
by Gaz Coombes (Supergrass) in the past few weeks. Paste Magazine premiered the “Mouse of a Ghost,” featuring a drunk, animated penguin
president planning to bomb Disney World.
Here's the brand new "Tilt a Whirl" video.
Here’s what we’ve hearing and reading:
“I love it.”
- Gaz Coombes
“Expertly crafted indiepop... She’s got a way with unusual but instantly
catchy melodies, and the album’s full of clever production touches.”
- Bill Pearis, Brooklyn Vegan, March 22, 2016
“Enchanted pop world… Anthem-thematic exercise-orchestration where each song has this cleverly arranged thrill pop odyssey.”
- Sjimon Gompers, Impose Mag, January 9, 2016
“Nearly supernatural knack for gently askew pop songcraft.”
- Steve Smith, Boston Globe, March 23, 2016
“Delightful.”
- Pure Volume, April 5, 2016
“A melodic orgy of vibrant sounds… [Piney Gir] creates a fresh brand of
whimsical indie-pop that’s drawn fair comparisons to Apples In Stereo
and Jenny Lewis.”
- Michael Marotta, Vanyaland, March 25, 2016
“Beautiful melodies and catchy tunes.”
- Joey Willis, Glide Mag, December 26, 2015
“Her whimsical - but never cloying - tunes have bright, catchy melodies
and her voice has a charming lilt… her songs have an underpinning of
steel-strong craft.”
- Marianne Meyer, Examiner, March 31, 2016
