The Josh and Pete Band Press Reviews

Phrequency Blog

"A rollicking new force on the local scene, the Josh and Pete Band are a West Philly-based story-rock quartet who understand that music-making—above all—should be fun, and who rocked the crowd last night with a rolling, upbeat blend of psych-pop, carnival rock and sweet, unfettered humor."

Two, One, Five, Magazine:

"The Josh and Pete Band mix late period British 60s pop not unlike The Zombies' 'odyssey and oracle' or The Kinks' 'village green preservation society' with a quirky American Showtune esthetic, crafting fun, energetic pop tunes."

Metro:

"The Josh and Pete band is a pleasingly silly four piece University City ensemble, whose new concept album "O' Captain" tells the story of a marooned sailor with a little bit of sea shanty and a little bit of Sgt. Pepper."

Philly2Philly:

"Part Pink Floyd, part the Beatles, part weirdness, The Josh and Pete Band have been rocking Philly’s local scene since 2007 and having the time of their lives doing it.They draw their own comics, as posted on their MySpace page, and they wear pretty outrageous outfits on stage. One thing you can’t accuse them of is ripping off anyone else’s style."

"Take the greatest rock and harmony-pop bands of the 1960s and '70s. Add in equal parts snark and sensitivity. Dress each member in flamboyant outfits. You've got The Josh and Pete Band."
