"Don't let the tombstone in the beginning of So Long Davey!'s "Six Feet Down" video fool you. The San Diego punk-pop quartet really is very much alive!" - MTV Buzzworthy
"So Long Davey! turned up the heat with its shirtless front man David Vaughn, who belted out a number of songs including the lively “You Got Me." Decked out in a neon green bandana and pants with suspenders, [the band] rocked the 30-minute set closing out with a graceful stage-dive, and the take-home message of the day: 'You can wear makeup, but you can’t say bitches.'" - San Diego State University (The Daily Aztec)
"Glam riffs at the speed of bright with looks to match" - New Miami Times
So Long Davey! is not your typical pop-punk band; these guys are a seemingly unstoppable brand of dance-pop-rock that will have you up and out of your seat before you even know what hit you. Having played shows with bands like Family Force 5 and Jeffree Star, So Long Davey! is on the quick up and up, so we wanted to give you the chance to get to know the band a little bit better. Check out our short interview with them and then hit up myspace.com/solongdavey to give their tunes a listen! - Substream Music Magazine
