The Pinkerton Raid makes shimmering, dynamic Americana and indie pop. Critics have hailed their 2017 effort, Tolerance Ends, Love Begins, comparing the sound to both the dark beauty of The National and the wild joy of Edward Sharpe.
“A masterpiece … the definition of beauty,” said Paste.
“Exquisite,” raved Impose. “The emotion pulling you from your seat as you sway your hips.”
“Glorious … intricate … playful,” wrote No Depression.
“A stunning synthesis of folkloric beauty,” wrote Mike Greenblatt of Aquarian Weekly.
The band is hard at work on its fourth full-length album, a collection of landscape songs about the places we call home and the spaces in between.
