International Reviews -
" Its funky, it rocks, it jams and its pounding guitar all the way through. Gingerfeet is real rock and roll and funk that really knocked me out on first listen.Simply amazing! " - Robert M Knight [Rock Prophecies]
" After listening to Gingerfeet's debut record,the first question which struck me was - how does a band from India sound more like an American rock group than MOST American rock groups?? From the vocal twang to the ripping guitar and rock solid rhythms, the entire disc has a modern yet vintage feel. Truly impressive.. Gingerfeet has got a very promising future beyond the Indian periphery " - Lonn Friend,RIP Magazines,LA,California [USA]
" Gingerfeet have put together a stunning debut album..the nine tracks on High and Above: The First Wave are catchy as hell and I’ve had the album on repeat play since I first got my hands on it. Listening to this album is an uplifting experience..High and Above: The First Wave is definitely worth checking out. Stunning! "
- Rich Dodgin,All About The Rock Magazine [UK]
" You don’t get many new funk rock/metal bands come along so it’s a bit of a treat to have this new band from India Gingerfeet come along. High and Above is a very accomplished debut album and be great if they can get over to Europe for some summer rock festivals as their music will go down a treat. Simply FUNK-TASTIC!! "
