Sounds Like: "Love-child of David Bowie and Andy Partridge singing show-tune versions of Bob Mould songs." - Me
"If you mixed Queen and ELO with some punk...ah...influence...you would get something along the lines of what Bonedome is doing." - Stewart Bennett, big-time touring FOH engineer (and high-school buddy)
"glam/prog i LOVE it!" Kim Pendleton, chanteuse, The BAcksliders
"It sounds so...happy... I really expected it to be much darker." - Kelly Heffernan, Idle den mother
"It has close harmonies, kinda like The Shins or The Beatles." Tiger Darrow (prodigal niece)
"It totally makes me think of Air Supply. And Big Country. Yeah, the harmonies sound like Air Supply and a little bit of Big Country." Sam McCall (who really did mean this as a compliment)
"Is that Ozzy?" Rachel Crapo McCall
"I hear the Byrds and Bob Mould prominently...this sounds so languid and happy...I've been reading an old Dr. Andrew Weil book about psychedelics as of late, this is beautiful background music." Social Worker and Wall Street trader Daniel Rocker (his real name!)
"hmm... kinda reminds me of a cross between tripping daisy and crash test dummies... interesting..." Jason Stallings (artist and cousin)
