"The entire band conjures a kind of spectral magic when they play. It’s the sort of spellbinding wizardry that draws in audiences of all ages—from the group’s twenty-something peers to old heads who used to follow the Grateful Dead. I cannot emphasize enough how magnetic and hypnotic their performance was." - Daniel Karasek (immersiveatlanta.com)

"Sometimes you happen on bands you know nothing about at a festival, and they turn out to be eye-opening. That would describe Rae and the Ragdolls. By the time the Atlanta-based young group finished their set, the crowd was on their feet yelling for more. Twin guitars William Bennet Jr. and Spencer Lingle traded hot breaks, drummer Devon Hirsch actually broke the tip off one of his drumsticks, and bass player Olivia Towe was playing some great bass lines. Frontwoman Natasha Rae Wermers owned the stage, always in motion, singing some great leads for their original hard rock material, and just generally mixing it up with the other band members; she’s a sight to behold onstage. Other than covers of “Whipping Post” and CSNY’s “Ohio,” which was their closer, the rest of their songs were original and tightly done; they play like a seasoned, much older band, even though they’ve only been together for a few years. By far my biggest surprise of the weekend; you really need to see this band if you get a chance." - Rick Davidson (musicfestnews.com)

"Rae and the Ragdolls feel authentic — like a quartet of hippies from 1971 who got in their groovy mystery-solving van and traveled through a tie-dyed wormhole into our modern world." - Jordan Owen (artsatl.org)

"I would say my favorite thing about this band is their effortless chemistry.It does not look like they are playing a part, they are just being themselves.They play like best friends who were made to do this and you feel their energy and passion radiating from the stage." - Haley Bray (room32records.com)
