Sep 9, 2013They make up an entire color palette of music and lyrics, of sounds and themes, that when combined on Rutili’s canvas make up truly original territory.
-
Sep 3, 2013The combination of loose fun and pinpoint accuracy here is bracing, and Califone’s sheer originality is a great counterpoint to the many acts trying desperately to live up to the legacy of their formers.
-
Sep 3, 2013The economic arrangements make sure that every note counts.
-
Sep 3, 2013Stitches' ten quietly lustrous tracks dutifully reflect the arid Southwest vistas from which they were sprung.

UncutSep 3, 2013There aren't many groups whose experimental cojones nestle comfortably alongside arch-classicist songwriting, but Califone solved that thorny equation long ago. [Sep 2013, p.85]
