More post-SXSW praise for The Head and the Heart: Paste Magazine—the self-anointed media bastion of “signs of life in music, film and culture”—has featured the indie rockers as “Artists of the Day.” Explains Paste contributor Andrew Leahey “[what sets The Head and the Heart apart], beyond the band’s unnaturally speedy climb from dive bars to an upcoming mainstage spot at Sasquatch, is its penchant for mixing rootsy Americana with orchestral, chest-swelling chamber-pop. Violin and piano help elevate the songs beyond their earthy origins, and three-part harmonies—anchored by co-frontmen Josiah Johnson and Jonathan Russell, and boosted by the Cat-Power-gone-Appalachian crooning of violinist Charity Rose Thielen—sweeten the deal.” As part of the “Artist of the Day” package, Paste is hosting a streamable version of the band’s track “Down in the Valley,” and has also included The Head and the Heart in its ongoing “Best of What’s Next” online series.
