Details:
"The Galloway brothers make music that will make you feel things you thought only the likes of songwriters like Elliott Smith or Jeff Mangum could. The addition of drummer Jack Gingrich to this family band has spawned the band that will eventually put Chico on the map as the hometown of one of the worlds most loved rock bands."
-I Heart Chico Bands, October, 2007
"The Shimmies, O Lord! Please don''t let them be misunderstood! They come not in the fashion of so many other bands of late, with a keen eye set to the whimsical attention of hipsters and mods, carefully prepared in the knowledge of a how a successful band should present themselves: manufactured and tightly packaged like Abercrombie and Fitch underwear models. Oh no. Not these scraggly faced minstrels. Their audience is not composed of curvaceous pin-ups, dolled up like the Whores of Babylon (Woe be to Nebuchadnezzar!) No. Fans of The Shimmies come out of the woods; come in from the flat and far-reaching praries; down from the branches of deciduous trees, their mouths agape at the revelations of polite society. These dark forms--immutable in character and inexorably forthright in mind--descend on The Shimmies'' art gallery of personal anguish in whispers, painting thin contrasts of Hope around the dim corners of their music in faint but visible lines of beauty. Put shortly, Shimmies'' fans love Shimmies'' music. And The Shimmies love them back."
