"The Tiptons are one of my very favorite bands these days. Beautiful arrangements that are both funky and swinging, amazing solos,
and, increasingly, incredibly beautiful vocalizing. They range far over the map in terms of their interests, but wherever they alight,
there's something moving, strange, beautiful, and new. No one else surprises me as much and with such stunning musicality."
Rick Moody, author of The Ice Storm
