(Broken down by album and year)
Hello June, 'Artifacts' (2023)

Hello June, 'Hello June' (2018)
Paste Magazine
"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." Read more.
"(Mars) is a pulsating slice of 1990s comfort food that will shake the stardust from your heartstrings." Read more.

Show Review: Cincy Music
"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." Read more
