“Baltimore geeks whip up some chipper, punky noise…one sexy, sweaty mess.” – Blender Magazine

“one of the more agile and enterprising instrumental rock records of the year.” – Pitchfork [8.4 Review, Top 5 Live Show of SXSW]

“[an] art-punk joyride…led by irresisitable squawker Molly Siegel.” – SPIN Magazine

“Energy crisis? Don’t tell Ponytail–the four Baltimoreans have discovered something cleaner than oil and more powerful than nuclear, and they’re using to to make wickedly fun, blazingly melodic rock.” – Time Out New York

“Ponytail is the sound of ecstasy; tall exclamation points of guitar, mad rambunctious percussion and wild-eyed ululations, an enormous blast of shocking pink bouncing off the walls and shooting up toward the sun. It’s absolute happiness, a drill boring straight down into the human id, recording everything it finds.” – eMusic.com

“Known for its infectious jams and barnyard noise lyrics, Ponytail is a Baltimore Art School four-piece with the pomp and preposterousness to become the next buzzing indie darling.” – Impose Magazine
