“Power pop act Parker Woodland started things off on the Mohawk outdoor stage. All coming with 'ABOLISH ICE' shirts to commemorate the recent tragic events in Minneapolis as a result of the controversial immigration enforcement occupation. The crowd was right there with them as they trekked through an impossibly fun set, with singer and bassist Erin Walter commanding the crowd with positive vibes that attendees latched onto right from the jump.” - The Cosmic Clash

 

“Parker Woodland channels fierce indie-rock energy and unapologetic self-expression in 'Get Me to the Show'. With empowering vocals and a punchy tune, the track captures the rush of anticipation and youthful rebellion straight out of a ’90s coming-of-age movie.” - Loris Lowe, Sun Radio

"Combining indie rock, pop-punk, and psychedelia with an activist message...slow, simmering beat, powerfully confident femme vocals, a touch of tambourine, and some big, chunky guitars, this song is the sugar to make the socially progressive medicine go down... [their new album is] chock full of shout-along anthems that will make you want to throw your fist in the air in protest while dancing to the catchy hooks." -  New Noise Magazine

"Contains the ageless punk swagger of Bikini Kill mixed with the relentless hooks of Blink-182. There’s No Such Thing as Time is filled with energetic anthems that hit us with punk exuberance, pop hooks and psychedelic guitars." - Glide Magazine
 
“There’s No Such Thing as Time, a 10-track collection that grapples with some of the existential threats to our planet (climate change) and society (transphobia) set against unapologetically bright punk...Climbing, scuzzy guitar gives way to a driving beat pinned down by drummer Keri Cinquina (Parker Woodland features a rare all-woman rhythm section)... Parker Woodland isn’t offering an escape from any of these capital-I issues. But their version of leaning into them inspires hope that, no matter what, there are still glimpses of light. Throw on your glitter. They’ll keep dancing ’til the world ends.” - Austin Chronicle

"Propulsive indie-rock." - Austin American-Statesman

“Standing firmly in their vintage pop-punk sound comes 'Get Me to the Show,' a punchy tune packed with earwormy hooks and raw, female-led energy fueled by Erin Walters’s signature vocals pivoting between pop harmonies and Sleater-Kinney-like attitude."  - KUTX

“ 'Stranger' has the feel of a Parisian nightclub, lights dimmed, a single spotlight on the chanteuse. Opening with a moody and rhythmic guitar line, the atmospheric hushed vocals grip and entrance, a pulsing bass line keeps it all a little trippy, with multiple peaks and troughs in a fabulous psychedelic journey. It concludes with a spectacularly emotive instrumental and distorted outro... some sinuous Pink Floyd feels running through." - The AU Review

"There’s something very apocalyptic about 'Last Song on Earth.' Known for her nimble lyricism, lead singer Erin Walter imagines a final trip to an abandoned grocery store before the end of the world sets in... Walter has become known for her use of vivid imagery and she again does not disappoint... continuing [the] theme of discovering love amongst all of the despair." - V13

" 'First One to Fall Asleep Wins,' teems with longing, before blasting off into a full blown power ballad, or prom jam, or song to hold hands for the first time during the couple’s skate... that intense feeling of young love where leaving that person, even for the night, feels like the end of the world." - Vents Magazine

"At its core, Parker Woodland has always been a celebration of community... Known as an activist band, their anti-racist, pro LGBTQA+, socially progressive music, live shows and general stance on living is metered out with fun and energetic positivity." - Adobe & Teardrops
