What the press have said: "Sunny harmonies, calypso beats, buoyant melodies and quirky lyrics. Unashamedly poppy and irrepressibly charming." NME "Stealing beats and licks from all over the folk-pop globe, ukulele led acoustica bursting with a joyous Afro-Latin energy... recalling the post punk clatter of Bow Wow Wow with a side order of Vampire Weekend." Uncut "Whatever reaction such words evoke, you can, at the very least, tell that Schlesinger and her band had fun making this record. It's folk music on happy pills and it's difficult not to go with the flow." The Independent "It is the marvellous musical melting pot that is most exciting part. The hard drums, the sweet strings and the generous use of uke, accordion and melodica, these are all used to generate joyous folk pop." Americana UK "6 Day Riot Have A Plan, their second offering, lays it's claim as one of the cleverest, cheeriest records of the year straight from the off with Run For Your Life...6 Day Riot Have A Plan comes together perfectly into a collection of pretty little folk pop ditties that will have you humming them all day. Unashamedly poppy and unashamedly fun while touching on serious, almost cathartic issues makes for a fine, fine record." The 4 oh 5. "6 DAY RIOT HAVE A PLAN is a bracing listen, possessed of grace and momentum, honesty and conviction, tempered by sadness but refusing to be overwhelmed by it." Maverick "A Roots band who dispel any 'quirk fatique' by sounding as though they're having the time of their lives... the result is a big, bouncing cynic-defying barrel of fun."James Med - The Word
Bring On The Waves
What the press have said: "...the recent EP of irrepressibly charming new songs gave evidence of a band accelerating to greatness." Pete Paphides (The Times Pop Picks 2009) "...nothing about Bring On The Waves feels contrived, calculated or wilfully different for the sake of difference and that’s becoming an increasingly rare commodity...what we may be looking at here is the next important band from Britain." Ground Control Mag (USA) "'Bring on the Waves' fizzes along with an enthused sense of invincibility, the hazards of rising sea levels or a floundering music industry receding in significance in their boisterous wake...6 Day Riot give every impression of being completely fearless - they’ve even released (the EP) on their own label, Tantrum Records. When the music is this good, it’s difficult not to think that their confidence is completely warranted." Room Thirteen 11/13 "...Four songs of brilliance, full of warmth and tender heart.This band really mix up the country pot, whether its bluegrass, Klezmer, or vaudeville with a hint of the wild west, they entertain and mix it up to create their own brand of catchy, sun drenched pop...Four songs isn’t enough. Brilliant stuff." TLOBF
Folie A Deux
What the press have said: "Their repertoire is divided up between boisterous clap/sing/stomp/dance-alongs and more pensive numbers, all arranged and executed beautifully and with a melodic skill and ingenuity that would be impressive from much more seasoned bands, let alone one so tender. And while the prevailing mood is jubilant, closer inspection of the lyrics reveal that even behind the widest smile there can be heartfelt sadness." Frank Yang - Chromewaves.net "Traditional English folk music has been dug over so many times
that it is in danger of becoming barren, bands plant the same old seeds in the
same soil, over and over again; thankfully some of our British cousins are
practicing some sort of folk crop rotation. With Tamara Schlesinger’s vocal
travelling on the top like a jockey on the hump of a camel it makes for an
interesting ride." You can buy 6 Day Riot's CDs on Paypal with this link:
