		The first thing you need to know about Tilly and the Wall is that yes, these five perfectly disheveled hipsters from Omaha are as adorable as their press photos imply.
		Tilly's music can be so sun-kissed and bouncy, you sometimes get the feeling that its members are the kind of people who write letters on Lisa Frank's rainbow-colored stationery and use Hello Kitty stickers to seal the envelopes.

	Tilly and the Wall: Bottoms of Barrels: Pitchfork Record Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
		Tilly's at their best when Jenkins and Derek Pressnall are trading lines like mash notes; the songs where Pressnall takes the lead tend to be more maudlin and less lively, pretty but soft-focused without Jenkins's ragged edge.
		Tilly and the Wall's music is childlike in the sense that it celebrates the tactile and emotional world with the verve of unjaded perception; organs of pure sense probe the enticing recesses of the night.
		It doesn't deny harsh realties-- Tilly's world of teenage knife fights and drunken bra-clasp fumblings doesn't elide homeless women walking the snow; a prostitute with "money spilling out of her hands;" "the newly born crying, realizing what life is" or a grandfather's weathered eyes.

	OnMilwaukee.com Sound Check: Tilly and the Wall continues the party with "Barrels"
		Tilly and the Wall may not be the first band to glean a band name from a children's book (Belle & Sebastian, anyone?) but one thing the band can probably take credit for is turning the indie rock world onto tap dancing.
		Replacing an actual drummer, dancer Jamie Williams taps out the catchy beats as her best friends, who also happen to be her bandmates, gush out some of the happiest, hopeful and energetic pop songs since the love-is-all-you-need, flower-power optimism of the '60s.
		Tilly and the Wall plays a $10 show at the Pabst Theater on Monday, June 5.

		Tilly and the Wall sprang out of Nowheresville, USA — a Midwestern band of like-minded friends with pockets full of melodies...and a lot of pockets.
		In front of a backdrop of sunshine, rain and snow, Tilly and the Wall sang songs about loving and kissing, dancing and drinking, staying and leaving, driving and talking, sleeping and dreaming, all set to the tap-tap-tapping of Jamie's toes.
		In short, Bottoms of Barrels is an album that is going to continue to set Tilly and the Wall apart from all of their indie pop peers, and is guaranteed to make you love them even more than you probably already do.

		However, with their album Wild Like Children moving over 10,000 copies and opening slots for Rilo Kiley and Pedro the Lion, Tilly and the Wall have managed to move out from the shadow of the man who released their albums.
		And not by any accident: Tilly and the Wall aren't your average indie band, utilizing tap dancing for percussion and writing songs that sound like teenage anti-anthems both deftly written and undeniably powerful.

	Concert Review: On Song Emerging Talent with Tilly and the Wall. Islington Academy, London
		Tilly and the Wall headlined the evening and for good reason.

	Tilly & The Wall: Wild Like Children: Pitchfork Record Review
		In addition to gelling with Oberst's unabashed my-angst-is-bigger-than-your-angst aesthetic, Team Love makes literal sense: Tilly & The Wall is a chance for old friends to get together and relive their halcyon days of teenage romance, early adventures with booze and heavy-petting, and starry, night-stalking urgency.
		Tilly & The Wall's roots lie in a band called Park Ave., which was one of the always-prolific Oberst's pre-Bright Eyes efforts.
		But Tilly & The Wall split their time so equally between youth's heartaches and unmatchable joys that it seems a heartfelt and sophisticated coming-of-age document, despite the fact that "sophisticated" is usually antithetical to such ingenuous musical roman a clef.

	eGigs.co.uk - Tilly And The Wall - Manchester Night & Day on Thursday 1 March 2007
		Tilly and the Wall are to music what Scientology is to religion.
		With two albums under their belt, ‘Wild Like Children’ & ‘Bottoms of Barrels’, Tilly & the Wall may have a repertoire of feel good indie pop songs that sound pretty decent when tweaked in the studio, but I’m afraid to say that they lack what it takes to perform their songs live.
		Sure, you could argue that Tilly & the Wall would sound better in a venue with superior acoustics, but after spending so long setting up, there’s no way you could blame a poor sound check for the noise emanating from that stage.

		Hailing from the music factory of Omaha, Nebraska (Bright Eyes, the Faint, Cursive, Elliott Smith), Tilly and the Wall delivers warm, rich layers with delicious harmonies via three vocalists, and succulent beats from a nondrumming tap-dancing percussionist.
		Tilly and the Wall's second album, Bottoms of Barrels, was released this past May on Team Love, Oberst's sister label to Saddle Creek.
		Tilly and the Wall performs with Dave Dondero and Tucker Tota on Sunday, June 25, at Studio A, 60 NE 11th St, Miami.

		This good humor was evident Saturday night at the Black Cat, where a sizeable crowd came out for cheerful indie kids, Tilly and the Wall.
		Geographical disaffection was touched on in "South of the South," which went on for longer than it should and held some lines that were downright cringe inducing (such as a perilous rhyme of "swamp turkey" with "swamp turkey jerky").
		There was a great shift, again, when Tilly and the Wall lined up across the front of the stage, a noisy whirlwind of youthful enthusiasm.

	Tilly and the Wall - Anime Academy Lounge
		Tilly puts on an awesome show (Recently saw them with Bright Eyes) and their music is fun.
		Rilo Kiley is also awesome, their singer is better, but the music itself is much too angsty for my personal taste.
		It was pretty cool though when their beat boxer and Jamie from Tilly had a tap dance off.

	EvilSponge: Tilly and the Wall by Tilly and the Wall
		I think before i go any further i should point out that Tilly and the Wall are a Bright Eyes side project.
		(Even i got sick of them.) Well, the connection is that the keyboardist in Bright Eyes is the keyboardist in Tilly and the Wall.
		In complete contrast to the crazy dance music that Tilly and the Wall do, they also do old fashioned country pretty well too.
