PRESS AND REVIEWS

"The pathos of Hello June is also in part due to its nostalgic glow. Hello June respectfully recalls your favorite indie rock records, but it’s simultaneously fresh as can be. The pristine production value gives it a modern feel, but not much else on Hello June screams 2018, which is one reason it’s so enjoyable. The band conjures Yo La Tengo’s vast riffs while Rudy echoes Lucinda Williams’ husky drawl."
- Paste Magazine

 

"Mars is a pulsating slice of 1990s comfort food that will shake the stardust from your heartstrings." - NPR Music
 

"...there’s an overall sense of resilience and perseverance coursing through Hello June’s music that’s as undeniable as it is irresistible. You can feel it in the band’s radiant rhythms and dynamic, driving beats; in the heat of smoldering, overdriven guitars that wail, shiver, and shake with cinematic, spellbinding force; and you can hear it in Sarah Rudy’s achingly evocative vocal performance – in the words she sings, and the way she sings them. A visceral set of sonic snapshots full of passion, energy, and raw emotion, Artifacts is a charming, churning, and charged indie rock record ready to rouse our hearts and stir our souls."

- Atwood Magazine
 

"Hello June challenges societal expectations, calling for authenticity and independence. Hold on to the past but don’t let it alone define who you are and what you mean."

- Art Jipson, YTAA Radio Dayton, OH
 

"Sarah Rudy (guitar/lead vocals) who not only has superb warm Bohemian-style vocals, she has a unique look that dictates her showcase. She doesn’t seem to follow the pack."

- Americana Highways
 

At times sounding like Sleater-Kinney, but with the more pop and sonic sound of the Cranberries, Hello June has something sweet and beautiful about their sound that can still be rough around the edges."

- Cincy Music (on Hello June's live performance in Cincinnati)
