Polly Mackey & the Pleasure Principle
"After watching Polly MacKey's sound check it was apparent to me that she must have the word "talent" written through her like a stick of rock, the
sheer quality of her song writing and her amazing voice are the first thing that strike you about this girl... I have to admit if this is the sort of quality
song writing she is able to produce at 18, it's frightening to think just how good she may become."
- Andy Von Pip, Alt Sounds
"... Drawing upon an impressive lineage of empowered female frontpersons - from such classic rockers as Maggie Bell and Ann Wilson to the punk
and new wave era's Patti Smith and Chrissie Hynde, and onward to the contemporary milieu's Alison Mosshart and Sharin Foo - Mackey and her
band deliver the hi-nrg powerpop goods with an impossible-to-ignore panache and vivacity. Not for nothing did we pick these Brits as our "Best
Kept Secret" for March (2009 SXSW). But they won't be a secret much longer. "
