L.A. Review of Books - "Among the Athenians: A Conversation with Grace Elizabeth Hale"
"What’s the great Athens band whose work should be reissued?
The problem is that I can’t just pick one. I’ll offer four: The Squalls, the Bar-B-Q Killers, Mercyland, and 28 Days. If I had to narrow the list today, I would probably choose The Squalls, just because their music makes me really happy, and we need that emotion this year."
