Reviews for 'October, looking South'

"Suffice it to say that The Lasting Days is head and shoulders above the countless multitudes of bands wallowing in the quick sand that sadly becomes the average situation for the majority. With a sound akin to Andrew Bird and song structures heartbreakingly reminiscent of an upbeat Nick Drake, it is difficult to find fault with this opus. A piece of work destined to ease the pain of not just the growing pains of teenagers, but also the sadness of life itself. The depth of emotion, the skilful wordplay and painstaking instrumentals means October, Looking South demands a wider audience and here’s hoping the band get it. Make this a staple of your record collection." - Suit Yourself magazine

"Bristolian Indie hopefuls hint at bigger things... Displaying a maturity and crafted know-how that belies their short existence, "The Lasting Days" is a promising display and certainly a name to watch out for." - Americana UK "One to watch" - Venue
