From the Onion June 26, 2008:
"If anyone's qualified to help Madison audiences bash away a few brain cells, it's Heather Sawyer and Robert Wegner...Their new band, The Hussy, collides Wegner's garage-rock riffage, Sawyer's considerable drum-pummeling skills, and playfully obnoxious vocals from both."
From Mister G - Green Arrow Radio June 29, 2008:
"A two piece from Madison calling themselves “the Hussy†made themselves known at the Frequency and man, it didn’t take long to have the beats beating a pulp of real raw rawkkkkk! Armed with a vexing guitar and a banger of earthshaking booms on drums, the Hussy brought back the short catchy hard hitting feeling I first remember when trying out heavy sounding underground sounds. I felt like I was back at CBGB’s getting a taste of what the others have been trying to make happen."
