Seymore Saves the World is two parts Ben Folds with a splash of Mates Of State, pumping out effervescent keyboard trio pop that's rockin' the burbs.
-STEREOGUM (www.stereogum.com)
I immediately became a fan because it isn’t completely out-there indie music.

10 TWIN CITIES BANDS YOU NEED TO KNOW: It's classic crooner pop filtered once through the frustrations of adolescence and then again through the coarse indie rock of the mid-'90s, resulting in a sharp, high-quality flavor.
-THE ONION - A.V. CLUB
Seymore Saves The World's songs are upbeat and so much fun. After a long arduous day of traveling stress they were just the right medicine.
-ROCK INSIDER (www.rockinsider.com)
Today is a day for Seymore Saves the World. They have the bounce and sparkle that I need today. Yesterday's clouds have been blown out to sea, the sun's out, the temp's rising. I don't need much help getting out of bed, but it helps to have the bubbling organ and harmonies straight out of the late 90s indie scene.
-MUSIC FOR ROBOTS (music.for-robots.com)
We'd be lying if we said we didn't think these guys were the sh%t.
-SNOWGHOST (www.snowghostmusic.com)
At the Varsity, the trio sounded like Ben Folds Five playing in a Supertramp cover band, with quirky organ- or piano-led epics fueled by singer/keyboardist Scott Hefte's high-wiry delivery.
-STAR TRIBUNE (Minneapolis/St.Paul)
A tasteful blend of angst-ridden lyricism, modestly groovy keyboard blips and dramatic, boyish vocal harmonies, Seymore Saves the World's self-titled debut is the kind of preciously geeky pop sure to appeal to fans of early Ben Folds Five.
-PULSE MAGAZINE (Minneapolis)

Word up, Seymore, we just saying thanks for the add and we be working on our new tracks. Our disco hit "Polyester Shirt/Stonewashed Jeans" may be up your alley.
Am I ranting like an idiot? Sorry. I have an inferiority complex. You played a show with Har Mar Superstar on the same stage as Price was on later that night.
so sometimes, at work, i encounter families from out of town who want to find 18+ shows to go see while they're here... and it seems like it's always the night you're playing at 18+ show! Thanks for always being there for me Seymore.
