"A very mesmerizing mix of songs that can be hushed and calm one moment, and then suddenly dark and explosive the next." - Robin Hilton, NPR All Songs Considered

"Fierce, siren-like intensity...voracious appetite for rhythm... a band that isn’t afraid to risk being innovative to put out something truly personal." --Harp Magazine

"Dig It: A Scandinavian Pop princess gets lost in the American South and is rescued by a Jazz quartet."--CityBeat, Cincinnati

"...with the bustling metropolis of Asheville listed on their drivers’ licenses, one would guess stephanies?d, despite its collegiate moniker, is likely some sort of country or folk act. Not bloody likely.... If you’re into the Gothic chamber rock of Rasputina or the eclectic electronic pop of Bjork, stephanies?d will fit right into your collection."--The Other Paper, Columbus, OH

stephanies?d is indie pop revelry! We always play with heart and lust and gusto, because there’s no point in doing anything else. We care about things in the world. We often brood about them. But not for terribly long or for too many songs, as there is no long-term gain in taking the human condition too seriously. The music, like life itself, is striving, searching, inconclusive, and (hopefully) beautiful.
