Gina Villalobos' compositions are not so simple, coming off the speakers like holographic cracker jack surprises that reveal a new depth with the slightest shift in light. Days On Their Side (Face West Records) finds her taking on the Lucinda Williams/ Sheryl Crow model to a new level (And it's about time someone did.)
AMERICAN SONGWRITER

"...Villalobos' melodies remind one of the best Bruce Springsteen, John Fogerty, and John Mellencamp.
She often slowly builds the intensity of a song in an almost cinematic manner, setting a mood, introducing a plot,
then moving in for the emotional kill."
VINTAGE GUITAR MAGAZINE

"Abundant lyric and musical hooks. This is intriguing stuff..." NO DEPRESSION

"...one of those recordings you'll be playing in a decade, it's timeless and combines
every element that makes a recording a classic....It doesn't get much better than this....PASTE MAGAZINE.

"Villalobos has the restlessness of the most moving country music but she combines it with a rock spirit that is always forthright and never forced..." HARP MAGAZINE.

What a great rock album is supposed to sound like...electricity and honesty... A skillfull amalagon of indie rock, country and pop....defies easy classification..." ACOUSTIC GUITAR MAGAZINE.

"...a remarkable level of musical and emotional consistency...Villalobos churns out country-inflected roots rock that will have you reaching for the "up" button on your stereo's volume control...." VINTAGE GUITAR MAGAZINE.

"...Unquestionably the finest voice in the country-rock genre today... VIillalobos is an artist that others will be compared to in the very
near future..." POP MATTERS.
