Sounds Like: An upbeat and catchy EP sounds like (Vago) took bits and pieces from Tom Petty's "Wildflowers" album and combined them with Refreshments/Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers songs and added Cancin Del Mariachi to keep it diverse, - Zach Scoville, Omaha City Weekly
This CD by the three-piece Omaha band Vago is a lively little number. Song two, CancinDel Mariachi... who knows what this song's about, it's in Spanish! and it rocks in Spanish. I think he's rippen it up. Yi Yi Yi he does some fine guitar work. When you hear this one, you will be stomping your feet and doing the Mariachi, what ever that is. It does keep the CD rockin out so I say, "Keep it". -The Iowa Entertainer
Let me just leave you with this one piece of advice. Go see Vago. They are a fun band, and yet they can be oddly dark and brooding at the same time. They put on one heck of a show, for I have now learned to listen to music in new ways. I know what happened to me the other night and the boys from Vago can take the credit for that. -David Williams Omaha Pulp Magazine
They don't have that skinny, tortured frailty on stage that's so popular these days, Omaha band Vago none the less have a handle on dark lyrics set to fast paced, guitar driven, in your face alt.rock. - Leslie Prisbell, The Reader
Vago seems to have found a chemistry that works well; Add one part nice lyrical content and interesting guitar work, one part excellent bass playing and backing vocals, top it all off with great drumming and you get an elixir that is very tasty, very intoxicating, and smooth going down. - Mark Lush midwestbands.com
