The Wandas was released August 2011 to rave reviews. The Boston Globe said "It's a gorgeously warm and wistful work" and American Songwriter gave it Four Stars, stating "The Boston based quartet’s dreamy pop-rock locks in on a mid-tempo groove and the organic sound captures the effortless strummy melodies and vocal harmonies that recall the days before slick production and too many overdubs robbed music of its magic." Guitar World Magazine named the self-titled record one of the "50 best albums of the first half of 2011" .
