Media Excerpts

“This tight Canadian band channels some licks and grooves from the collections of Prince and Stevie Wonder and then slathers them in a glaze of smoldering Modern Rock. If Maroon 5 can be played on radio every 15 minutes, Vanderpark should be on every 10.” - CityBeat Magazine Cincinnati, OH

“ I saw Vanderpark live a few more times, and I got to hear them try out some new songs onstage. This got me looking forward to their next album, and I was blown away when I finally heard it. Cherish Yesterday is miles ahead of All Your Hands—keep in mind that I liked All Your Hands. These songs are streamlined into incredibly catchy power pop rock, and the production gives Cherish Yesterday that “X factor” that’s missing from so many otherwise great indie records” - 102.1 The Edge Blog Spotlight, Toronto, ON.

“There is an undeniable dynamic that exists between its members making a Vanderpark show easy and refreshing. Their music is intelligent, accessible and it rocks.” - American Roots Live Review 74

“By combining a staunch dedication to strong, clever musicianship with grasping hooks, tasteful improvisation and three-part harmonies, Vanderpark’s catchy, aggressive pop is strong, confident and exhaustingly contagious” - Relix Magazine
