The last post I did on The Critics, a local band from Fortuna, was in May about the premiere of their latest music video. I have been reporting on the band since 2022.
Recently, I heard some news about their plans and reached out to The Critics Band Manager, Regina Fuller.
"Hi John – You heard correctly. The Critics are heading to White Whale Recording Studio in Santa Rosa, CA in January to record a 4-song demo album. They intend to submit it to music producers and labels. This is a tough industry to break into and they know it’s a long shot, but worth trying. Over the summer they did a small tour and played the Golden Gate Park Bandshell in San Francisco, Winters Tavern in Pacifica, and The Great Room in Fresno. That tour was a success, so they are focusing on touring in 2025 in addition to recording a new album. For news and upcoming shows, people can join their mailing list by visiting www.thecriticsband.com"
"Another fun news update is that their music video “Heart of Gold” with Director Griffin Loch has won a couple music video awards," said Fuller.
The video was selected as a Finalist for “Best Low Budget” with the Music Video Awards https://www.mvawards.com/summer24
It was “Best North America Music Video” and “Best Action Music Video” with the International Music Video Awards for the August 2024 season. https://www.imvawards.com/winners/winners-season-august-2024
