Media Praise:
“It's a rare thing in today's music world to get really excited about a new artist. Flicker Records' latest signing, Wavorly, hails from Tupelo, Mississippi and is one of the first new acts of 2007 truly worth getting thrilled about. Their debut, Conquering The Fear Of Flight, is a smart blend of alt rock, pop, and even a hint of worship, glazed over to near perfection with an appreciation for theatrics.... A delectable musical journey, Wavorly's debut is a welcomed diversion from the sea of like records in a flooded rock genre.”

“Wavorly's intelligent lyrics and multi-faceted sound truly stands out in a marketplace overcrowded with new rock acts that sound the same.”

“Their new album, Conquering the Fear of Flight, is a musical delight. Interesting musically and lyrically superior to many other bands on the market, ‘Conquering…’ is based partially on C.S. Lewis’ classic book, The Great Divorce. The result is depth, quality, and good, clean rock.”

“Wavorly serves a fresh sound with a tasty blend of rock styles. You'd be mad not to add Madmen!”
Jeff Howe WYSZ/ Toledo, OH
“Wavorly has crafted a worship song that our audience is connecting with. Maybe now that this song is getting out there, less will ‘live without it.’”
