About Me

Tacks is brought to you by the letter Ø.

Press
"If a group of musicians had been snatched from the planet in 1970, this is the postcard they would have sent from their travels around the galaxy — a mix of sounds both familiar and foreign." - Paste Magazine, Band of the Week

"Tacks, The Boy Disaster makes dreamy art-pop with gentle rhythms, lush production and sweetly hypnotic harmonies. The Austin quartet's debut EP, Oh, Beatrice, is a warm, blissful head-trip scored by jangly pianos, swirling guitars and ambient sound effects..." - NPR, Open Mic

"…with Oh, Beatrice, Tacks, the Boy Disaster has recorded one of the strongest local debuts in recent memory, the rare work genuinely deserving of being called beautiful. In short, it's unforgettable." – The Daily Texan

"This band sounds like everything you’ve ever wanted to hear in a band. Pure, unadulterated sonic bliss." – Mundane Sounds

"Tacks had the formula down: killer hooks, ear-teasing lyrics; and the crowd was doing something that rarely occurs at shows anymore – dancing."Austin Chronicle
