• "The Huntington Beach singer/songwriter has cultivated a surfer/acoustic sound with a touch of reggae and California sunshine. With the backing of major-label producer, Jim Perkins and with the premiere of his first single "Better Things" on San Diego's 91X, things are definitely looking up..." -Performer Magazine

 

"Headshine realize their dreams with chill, acoustic “Cali” rock. After being nominated for Best Acoustic Band for the OC Music Awards last year, Headshine embarked on a massive tour around the country which culminated with a show with The Wailers. “When we played the new record for the first time to a packed house full of good vibrations, it felt like we were home and Bob was... " KROQ.com

• “When you hear about a local band opening for legendary Bob Marley's The Wailers, presumably you have high expectations for that band's talent. Without any doubt, Headshine met or exceeded everyone's expectations in providing a fresh smooth-mood sound to Friday night's audience at House of Blues. As the quilted curtains opened..." OC Music Magazine

 

• "This sounds great! I'm gonna give it a spin on my show tonight!" -91X FM, San Diego

• “People have trust in my ear, they are going to dig what they hear so keep me posted when you’re coming thru Vegas again and I’ll send folks to go with me to further scope you guys out." -Senior Account Manager, CBS Radio, Las Vegas KMXB Mix 94.1 FM

• "Headshine keeps it poppy and positive, very refreshing for a modern rock band. In 2009, a song written and performed as a one-time demo reached the ears of major label producer Jim Perkins and that kick-started the Huntington Beach, Calif., band toward the national stage. Now the group is traveling cross country.." Illinois Times

• "They were amazing." -On The Rox, Roxy Theatre Hollywood

• "They rocked the place! People were really stoked on the whole scene, and they definitely made their mark here in our town. Almost 100 people came out, I think we would sell out next time. It was over all an awesome night. We would really like to host them again." -Old Princeton Landing, Half Moon Bay San Francisco

• "The students loved Headshine. There are requests for CDs and another performance. It was a pleasure having them perform for us." -Associated Students of Idaho State University

• "They were awesome! Everyone loved it. We would definitely like to have them back if they are interested. Thanks so much for hooking us up." -Orfila Vineyards, Escondido CA

• "Headshine did great - the band was exactly what I was hoping and played very well. Good vibe, good fit. Please be in touch with Milo in the future for bookings, he loved the band and both he and Alex were really stoked on the guys. Nice job" - The Lighthouse, Hermosa Beach

• "Mental states eased, the crowd was ready to sway as the opening band (and OC natives) Headshine hit the stage. This four-guy band had a laidback vibe and definitely did a great job of warming up the room for the Wailers with songs like, "Better Things" and "One Spark..." OCweekly

• "The show was really fun, and the crowd loved it. We’d love to have them back another time." -Silver Star Resort, Park City Utah

• "They were great, and people definitely liked them." -SoHo, Santa Barbara

• "A few of us saw HEADSHINE recently perform at Winstons in the OB area and were completely blown away by the songwriting and talent of the band." -Vicky Davis, San Diego Meetup.com

• "The show went really well. People really seemed to enjoy his music and it was a beautiful day on the patio. I would like to have him come back and play the next time he is in town. -Mr. Rick's, Avila Beach

• "I heard you guys play today at the Aztec Center on campus at San Diego State University and I thought you guys were great. I was wondering if you would be interested in playing for our sorority?" -Pi Beta Phi SDSU

• "Headshine, played (Whitworth University) in the Hixson Union Building Multipurpose Room on Wednesday, Oct 14. Between every song, they shared a story behind why they wrote it or decided to play it. Overall, their inspirations came from several different places. One song, "Go with the Flow," was written after an awful river float experience on their trip from Idaho to Utah. What was supposed to be a peaceful river excursion quickly turned into a not so pleasant situation, but it inspired them to write a song about it. "Rivers just show you something about yourself," RAS said. Their witty banter between songs kept the audience engaged and made for a more intimate setting. Their stage presence was very relaxed, and it was obvious they enjoyed playing and interacting with the audience." -Whitworthian, Spokane Washington
