The Low Republic Review from "The Complex"
"The
Low Republic stirs up a unique blend of styles as contrasting
personalities come together in a thick, alluring musical plot. Adam
McKinstry's silky baritone vocals are punctuated by his ska guitar
rhythms--which eventually climax into classic rock excursions supported
by a driving rhythm section. Chad Doogan slices his distorted bass with
a plectrum, giving the music raw, kinetic momentum, as drummer, Bill
Sargis, pounds down heavy funk rock statements--until he is drawn back
into the ska realm by Adam's syncopated guitar. And as if that isn't
enough, Cola's pouting vocals react and respond to Adam's seductions in
her cheeky Euro way--blowing bratty bubbles as she splatters the wall
of sound with exotic synth fills. Each band member stubbornly imposes
their character into the action, but somehow the pieces fit, like
diverse cultures co-existing on a city street. Their songwriting is
tasty and confident, and I look forward to seeing how their ingredients
coalesce as time progresses."

The Flabby Hoffman Show reviews The Low Repubilc
The
Low Republic - "An intriguing band that captures a combination of
stylistic verve and a passionate power with a vibrant groove leaving
the audience ready to dance even while they're having their skin melted
off. In fact, if you're not digging their set, then it's likely that
some of the wires in your brain are frayed and perhaps you mind is
under a shroud of dark somnambulist. No worries though, their music
will be your shaman to lead you into the bliss."
