Core Info
"This is guitar/keyboard based rock with sweet harmonies, catchy melodies, spirited percussion, and slightly psychedelic leanings. The disc is just a short eight songs long, but each track bristles with sonic freshness and seems complete in itself." - Popmatters
"[You Me & Iowa] sits comfortably between The Beach Boys and Of Montreal, skirting the psychedelic electronica of the latter and erring on the side of a Harvard educated version of the former[...]Like an older, slightly more cynical Vampire Weekend, these boys fill this album to the brim with catchy hooks, tight harmonies and snappy guitar riffs." - Amplifier Magazine
"The Adventures of You Me & Iowa takes all of the best elements of rock, indie, and pop music and blends them into something wholly accessible, yet undeniably smart and rewarding. I may be speaking too soon, but this just might be a near perfect pop/rock album, and one of the best albums I’ve heard this year." - Delusions Of Adequacy
The Adventures of You Me & Iowa is the second release from the California quintet You Me & Iowa. Recorded in July of 2007 at Rollercoaster Recording in Burbank, CA, under the guidance of producer/engineer Dave Newton (The Little Ones, The Mighty Lemon Drops) and mixed by J. Robbins (The Dismemberment Plan, Jawbox), The Adventures of You Me & Iowa is a breath of fresh air—summertime indie-pop that twists the genre in new and fresh musical directions. Complex arrangements combine with catchy melodies and an inspired rhythm section to make this eight-song album a truly rewarding listen.
