Eric R. Danton wrote in his Hartford Courant blog Sound Check: "The Last Town Chorus put on one of the most captivating performances I've seen in a long time when singer and guitarist Megan Hickey and her band played this year at South by Southwest. Now Hickey is on tour, with a pair of dates in the area. The Last Town Chorus performs a headlining show Tuesday at The Space in Hamden, and opens for Michael Penn Thursday at the Iron Horse Music Hall in Northampton. The band's newest album, 'Wire Waltz,' is simply beautiful. … It's also the subject of our latest podcast. I'm joined by the regulars: Babe Zero, a pseudonymous DJ on WHUS-FM and Courant photo editor; Steve Busemeyer, a Courant editor and occasional CD reviewer; and Eric Gershon, a reporter who has written about music."
