"Drummer of the year: Justin Edington -- Edington has always been solid but the Why I Like Robins drummer showed much versatility this past year. Edington seamlessly provided beats for Mike Reeb's projects and nailed hand percussion at a Why I Like Robins unplugged concert, one of the local indie rock's best shows yet." - Lafayette Journal & Courier
"They may have started as a spare-time recording project in 2006, but the years have seen Why I Like Robins transform in to a full-fledged, buzz-worthy band. “We aim to rock peoples faces off,” says the band on their OurStage profile. Take a listen to “Coastlines and Skylines” and see if their aim is true." - AOL OurStage Blog
"The strange name comes from a Hum song, and the band's sound is one of the best I've heard."
"The songs are quite profound. Most clock in at about six minutes with complex part after complex part. Yet there's still a simplicity that helps keep Why I Like Robins from sounding too pretentious. The songs are still catchy as elements of old school alternative rock can be heard along with an artistic indie-rock style." - Lafayette Journal & Courier
