Vanish Valley's latest "Races" from their record Get Good (released yesterday) features some extreme closeups of all of the instruments, including lead singer and brain Andrew McAllister 's face. - Radio Free Silverlake
Andrew McAllister and Vanish Valley mete out Southern (California) fried morsels as well as chunks of piquant indie rock. - Buzzbands LA
"A brilliantly sequenced album of moody, atmospheric character sketches, best experienced from start to finish as one musical sentence." - Innocent Words
"Not one song on Vanish Valley serves as filler. In fact, every song is nothing less than bliss... I think the future is very bright for McAllister" - Olive Music
"A simple, sweet, brief album that should remind you of the sunshine warming your jeans when the cold rain of autumn falls again." - Glorious Noise
"The album breezes by and demands repeated plays, the thirteen tracks are laid back and soaked in melancholy, aptly delivered with minimal instrumentation to accompany McAllister’s raspy vocal" - Beat Surrender
4 Stars - Pasadena Weekly
“A catchy yet haunting countrified feel that has the ability to get caught in your head after one listen” - Striker Bill
“A lovely mix of rootsy folk and hazy country psychedelia” - The Mad Mackerel

“A collection of stories detailing battles for hope and companionship. Women from the perspectives of lone travelers, felons and family men-their execution sways from folk-ish, Townes Van Zandt-like ballads to fuller Flying Burrito Brothers-inspired, laid-back country rock.” Andrew McAllister sings with a voice characterized by Three Imaginary Girls as “…a country-esque Damien Jurado” and by Seattle’s Stranger as “…a younger more innocent Jeff Tweedy”. These are just a few of many descriptions of Andrew McAllister’s music.
Blending elements of folk, country and psychedelic rock, the songs on Vanish Valley ramble their way through hushed landscapes and into roll-your-window-down backcountry cruises. Listen to
Vanish Valley and you’ll feel it too.
