• Quotes

  • "For a long time, soul music was maybe one of my favorite kinds of music," he said. "It's a perfect kind of fusion of pop catchiness, harmony, bad-ass kind of oomph, and pain".—Devendra BanhartPopMatters: C'mon Over and Let's Make a Record: An Interview with Devendra Banhart (October 2, 2007)

  • "Banhart's voice might be a cross of Tim Buckley's flutter, Marc Bolan's timbre, and Tiny Tim's vibrato, but I would be hard pressed to claim he was imitating anyone. Similarly, his songs hit like sea chanteys started by Syd Barrett and then left mysteriously half-finished".—PitchforkPitchfork: Oh Me Oh My... Review (November 6, 2002)
