“Though it presents an impressively grand departure from 2005’s Odd His Sleepy Soar, Acorn Project’s latest offering, the nine-song We’ll Be Fine, still captures the trademark smoothness and funk that has made them a Bellingham favorite… We’ll Be Fine demonstrates a perfect balance of whimsy and work ethic and it’s precisely the ability to keep things so effortlessly composed that ensures Acorn Project a lot to look forward to.” By Stephanie Ashton, May, 2008 What’s Up Magazine “For a band that never fails to put on a completely satisfying live show, Acorn Project's CD Release Party managed to raise the bar of their performance flair even higher, and was nothing short of spectacular. For $25, attendees were given admission and a copy of their new album, We'll Be Fine. Despite the price, the sold out GAF Church was swarmed by fans and the band's ensuing three sets made sure those in attendance got what they paid for.” By Stephanie Ashton, June, 2008 What’s Up Magazine “Acorn Project has finally recorded an album, and it was well worth the wait. The 12-song debut, Odd His Sleepy Soar, is like a giant tornado of musical energy, picking up preconceived notions and perceptions and tossing them around until there is only a path of destruction left to mark the event.” Album Review – Odd His Sleepy Soar By Jaired Denali, March 2006 What’s Up Magazine “The next afternoon, a number of up and coming bands to the Northwest scene performed including fun Acorn Project, from Bellingham, WA… Each band was embraced by newcomers and long time friends enjoying themselves out at the festival and each band has a uniqe sound that will help as they continue to grow.” “Vince Herman Melts with Flowmotion” By Greg Lake, September 18th, 2006. Kyndmusic.com “Saturday was kind of a slow-it-down and relax day (but), The Acorn Project stood out in the afternoon, then the Yard Dog Road Show was filled with performance artists… and entertaining for the eyes.” “Summer Meltdown 2007 Festival Review” By Val Batik, September 7th, 2007 Billboard.com “Within minutes, fans and people in the crowd hearing Acorn Project for the first time are rocking out to funky keyboard riffs, wild saxophone bellows and the lead singer’s soothing yet powerful voice. But the members of Acorn Project never dreamed they would be playing, much less headlining, The Showbox, where countless famous bands, such as Pearl Jam and Reel Big Fish, have played.” “Bellingham’s Humble Hitmakers” By Amanda Raphael, February 2006 Klipsun Magazine “From the first beat, the audience erupted into a dancing frenzy. The Acorn Project’s Black Sabbath meets Parliament funk rock captured the crowd’s lower halves and didn’t let go the entire night.” “Acorn Project Halloween 2005 – Show Review” By Jaired Denali, October 27th, 2005 What’s Up Magazine “If you are one of the few people in Bellingham who have not heard of Acorn Project, let me tell you, you’re the only one. This band regularly draws hundreds of people to their local shows and are sure to send their whirling, twirling fans into a frenzy…” “Acorn Project New Year’s Eve ‘007 – Show Preview” By Carey Ross, December 28th, 2006 Cascadia Weekly	Click to Download Stage Plot
