"Bows and Arrows are a five piece rock band from Nashville TN. They have spent the past three years touring and along the way releasing their critically acclaimed album 1010 Eaton Street, and vinyl debut, Let's Take On The Night. Their tours have led to them to cities such as Chicago, Montreal, New York City, Atlanta, and Orlando to name a few. Notable shows include Next Big Nashville Music Festival 2009, and opening slots for artists such as Deerhunter, No Age, and the Pains of Being Pure at Heart.
"With a fetching mix of artistry and chemistry, atmosphere and offhanded charm, Bows and Arrows have created one of the year's most intriguing local releases. 1010 Eaton Street, recorded by the band over the past two years, shows a young group already in command of its sound and surprisingly assured in its writing." -Nashville Scene
"The good news is that we finally got to see an entire set by Bows and Arrows—at least an entire set where they were playing their own songs—and we found out just how overdue that was. The Murfreesboro quartet played a short but effective set of reverb-soaked indie pop that flashed with influences from the Velvets to Galaxie 500, Jesus & Mary Chain to Pixies, all delivered with a slack, cool-kid charm that had us grinning. The band sounded best when Rodrigo and Anna sang together, as they do on the disarmingly simple gem "Carbon," one of several songs they played off 1010 Eaton Street. They closed with "Burn It," which seemed to explode off the stage. If these youngsters can manage to bring that kind of energy to an entire set anytime soon, watch out." -Nashville Scene"
