Old Home Movies, the debut album from the Botticellis, is polished, orchestral, and surprisingly subtle, with a remarkably full and mature sound for such a young band. The classic, larger than life production is full of delicate flourishes; the Botticellis’ stylized sound echoes the production aesthetic of some of the great 70s pop records from Big Star, Chris Bell, and George Harrison. “A classic is a classic the first time you hear it….Old Home Movies, with phantom kisses and bygone ghosts of yesteryear jumping out of the binding, is a sung benediction to great songs had and great songs yet to come, a rare and blindly first offering.” — Daytrotter “Old Home Movies” drips with something lush…A fantastic band.” — Future Sounds
Christian Blunda says:
While it may be all the rage to write "summery dream pop" and include a surf reference in your band name (Botticellis = guilty, look it up), the songs on 'Old Home Movies' are far more rich & sophisticated than the lackluster beach-bum pop currently lurking around every corner of the internet. For those seeking super-melodic pop rooted in the 60's but grounded in creative arrangements and inspired songwriting.
