CHICAGO SUN TIMES, D. Hoekstra Earlier, down the street at the wonderfully named Bovine Sex Club...I loved the Brown Hornets...There were at least four dudes in the Toronto-based band and they mixed hard country with feisty punk and gospel. The lead singer had pure pop vocals in the style of Canadian Bob Seagrini and he played keyboards. I loved this band as much as I loved the tiny club decked out in Christmas lights, body odor and empty Jagermeister bottles. It seems everyone in Toronto drinks Jagermeister. I wanted to stay for more... MEG-A MUSIC TORONTO, Mary-Elizabeth, Gilbert The Brown Hornets at the Bovine Sex Club is our spotlight band for NXNE from Toronto!... If anyone asks which band someone should see in Toronto, The Brown Hornets is one of the bands I mention. From the moment this band came on stage, the crowd was immediately energized, full of smiles and having such a great time enjoying themselves, all thanks to the synergy this band has playing together and Danny Walters' charismatic performance. Their music is a mix of Rock, Blues and Soul filled with melody, catchy lyrics and somehow you are almost transported back in time to the 1960's when listening to this band. Danny engages his audience with not only his funny antics, tambourines and bananas but the smile that truly comes from his heart telling you he's having a great time and wants you to have one too, which of course everyone is. His showmanship is extraordinary. The next time The Brown Hornets come buzzing into your neighbourhood, catch their show, you won't be disappointed and its like something you have never seen before. Originality at its best, limitless talent and despite their rock and roll persona, I can say this band is and always will be a CLASS act! CTV NEWS The Brown Hornets, from Newcastle, Ont., whipped the crowd into a frenzy with their wild blend of blues and rock that sounded like the Who being fronted by Jerry Lee Lewis NOW MAGAZINE (Now Magazine’s ‘Critic’s Pick’, NXNE), Shit Tearing Blues BEING THERE (Best of Festival Pick, NXNE) It was charisma that made the Brown Hornets the most memorable performance of the festival, and one of the few that left me wanting more. Lead singer Danny Walters danced and interacted with the audience as if he had been gracing a stage his entire life. Give these guys enough exposure, and the Brown Hornets could be the saviours of rock ‘n’ roll EXCLAIM Drawing upon seemingly limitless amounts of energy, if you weren't moving during this show, you should have been pronounced either legally dead or supremely uncool. Featuring guitars and microphones askew on the floor and random handouts of pineapples and bananas, the music - a great old helping of dirty soul-inflected rock'n'roll - was just as fun as the proceedings. It's close to a guarantee that the temperature in the place actually went up a couple of degrees due to this performance. Scorching POP MONTREAL Gimmick-free old school rock with a whole lotta swagger SPILL Taking cues from Jerry Lee Lewis, Teenage Head and the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, the energetic four-piece burned through a grease-stained set featuring equal parts keyboard-infused rockin’ and manic street preachin’… solid showmanship and an irony-free slice of classic rock and roll goulash CHART (A+ Show Review) Shimmying, Shaking, Pure Rock & Roll Entertainment with a 60s Flair...The Brown Hornets are pure energy and showmanship. Lead singer Dan Walters serves as the focal point for this frantic outfit with his acrobatics and wailing vocals VIEW They've released four CDs, toured the U.S. and maintain a near manic love for what they do that oozes out at every show...Frenetic is an understatement in describing The Brown Hornets live performance ROCK & ROLL REPORT Shit kicking, rockabilly flavoured smash bang rock and roll is what I got out of Toronto’s The Brown Hornets. Coming Down Easy sounds like the Doors on a sequel to Roadhouse Blues and Rooftop Sniper locks into a tasty riff with great organ swells that will satisfy any rock and roll craving…Currently on tour all over Canada and select U.S. cities, this is mean and nasty rock and roll like it should be played THE BROWN HORNETS DEBUT CD IS HERE BUY IT BY ORDERING IT ONLINE Click Here To Order Online BUY IT BY DOWNLOADING IT DIGTIALLY HERE Puretracks.com itunes.com BUY IT AT A RETAIL STORE Available at HMV coming soon to Chapters, CD Plus and CD Warehouse Join The Hornets Mailing List Your Email: First Name: Last Name: Your City: Biography If you really must know, the Brown Hornets are four kids who grew up together in the heart of 'Ontario's biggest afterthought', Durham County. It's about 1 hour east of Toronto. With nothing fun, pretty, or constructive at their disposal, the Hornets had no choice but to create a band. And no, people don't get away with tipping cows in Durham County--you fuck with a cow, and you'll wake up pinned underneath a Massey-Ferguson. For the past decade the Hornets have been turning it loose in every club, festival, and chicken shack in Ontario and New York. And to this day, their live show murdalizes people with a fucked up repackaging of blues, soul and rock& roll. The Brown Hornet monorail is sure to make a mess of your hair--even if you're bald.
