Some nice things said about Action at a Distance
“a tight-knit four-piece guitar pop outfit with subtle melodic hints of classic rock.” - SF Chronicle
“alive, cohesive and textured…their best work yet!” - The Fire Note
“winding melodies, unique guitar hooks and intelligent songwriting” - Record Dept.
“5 stars. Winding intelligent melodies?uniquely satisfying guitar lines?smart pensive lyrics?what more could you ask for? Once again Lakis hits the target dead center.” -LMNOP/Babysue
“the strummy electric guitars, slightly elliptical and mathy melodies, and slouchy boyish vocals feel cozily familiar like a well-worn and beloved sweater. Some things are simply untethered to trendiness…that’s why Lou Barlow, Joe Pernice, Rob Crow and Jason Lakis and his crew are still goin’ strong. Definitely recommended… “ - Aquarius Records
“wonderfully subdued and melodic” - Local Vertical
