From St. Louis Magazine: “There are a few things that make Keokuk a unique band, not the least of which is that the group’s got the rarity of a mother/son rhythm section or the fact that core members spent years orbiting one another in the local independent rock scene before finally hooking up in a bands predecessor, pyschotronics… But this band’s very much an entity of its own, with Schaeffer’s prominent sax work an element not heard in your typical rock ’n’ roll band; while Hendricks’ guitar work is definitely a sound that he’s carried with him through underrated acts such as Electric Sheep and Plaid Cattle.” Thomas Crone 9/16
