Reviews:
"Oakland's Hot Toddies are so retro, smart and sexy, you'd think they were Japanese." - Seattle Weekly
"Four young ladies from Oakland who sweat prettily while romping through tough treacle like "Sugar Daddy" and "Anais Nin vs. the Pirates of Santa Cruz," they do fresh, engaging and altogether delightful noise-pop with odd, punky lyrics about being horny in Seattle and matters of suchlike pith. A rare treat and I commend their album, Smell the Mitten (out on Asian Man), to your palpitating attention." - Ron Garmon, LA City Beat

"Oakland girl band The Hot Toddies mix 1950's beach movie pop with soft indie rock, hard whiskey and a dry sense of humor. The song "HTML" is neo-retro code-romantic." - M. Myers, KEXP

"Four cute girls singing about being bad and horny. Could there be anything better? Casio tone keys, barbershop-style harmonies and retro-surf pop guitars soften the edge a bit, but once you decipher the silly lyrics, you'll be the hot one." - Owl Mag

"The Hot Toddies . are fucking pheonomenal. Too varied to be traditional twee .they're good enough to make all but the most jaded of pop fanatics say to themselves "Where has this band been all of my life?" - RetroLoFi.com
"[Rocker Girl]. is a great example of the vocal capabilities of this amazing band. With unison melodies that break into harmonies half way through to piggy-back catch lines, this song is full of color. The climax near the end is complete with heavily distorted guitars and the full group of vocal harmonies. Yes. yes." - Deli Magazine

". The Hot Toddies craft upbeat indie-pop rhythms with a dash of retro-rock and barbershop style harmonies that are almost too catchy. Oh, and they're hot too." - Synthesis Magazine

"The quartet offers . sweet multi-part vocals and gritty guitar hooks. . "Seattle" may be the funniest and sexiest tour song ("It gets so hard without someone to straddle/ I get so horny when I'm in Seattle"), while "Jaguar Love" ("So let me take you for a ride/ You might get laid") sounds like the kind of grrrl-empowered rock that '70s icon Nikki Corvette used to make." - SF Weekly
