“The Deli Magazine’s Best Emerging Rock Band in 2011. . . Wil Farr doesn’t take long to drown himself in sweat. Spun from the same cloth as Bruce Springsteen or Ian Curtis, he routinely leads his homespun band to a blaze of glory, forcing his restless spirit and barbed hooks through anyone looking for a dose of excitement. Hurrah! builds each track of their heartland-brewed, rocking yet rootsy tunes to a frenzy, making believers of anyone looking for a rush of adrenaline chased down with a shot of big band frenzy.” — The Deli Magazine “Those exclamation points in the moniker of Hurrah! A Bolt of Light! won’t seem so absurd when you hear the band’s organ-kissed soul-rock. The local sextet sows genuine uplift via thumping dance beats and passionate vocal interplay.” — Time Out NY “Hurrah! A Bolt of Light! traffic in anthemic and melodramatic material.” — The New Yorker "...Hurrah! A Bolt of Light! brings a sensational blend of U2 arena rock and Augustana-inspired pop to the table via the entirety of their self-titled debut album, due out April 1st. The band spent time with producer John Fields (Switchfoot, Soul Asylum, The Rembrandts) in Los Angeles working to get the sound right, and I’ll come out and say it: there’s not a dud on the album. “In Over My Head” in particular is a shining example of what the band offers. “I keep my heart in a little box … I should have known there’d be hell to pay,” Will Farr sings, backed by shimmering guitars, thundering percussion and echoing hand-clap fueled backing vocals. And while he may feel as though he’s in over his head, listeners will fall head-over-heels as they sing along with this perfectly radio-ready nugget." — Hear! Hear! Music
