== Highlights ==<br />
<br />
*Popgun<br>"[The] Blue Fairy Godmothers are 90-proof pop music, and their debut [the Popgun EP]... is the music equivalent of a summer popcorn movie with a fresh take on the car chase kicking off the third act, with Ben Folds as the optimistic LAPD detective trying to catch a Blue Album-era Weezer who've made off with his piano licks. And, good Lord, it's fun as hell. 'Popgun' is the feel good hit of the same summer you dumped that body into the lake; Rivers Cuomo hates himself for letting someone else beat him to writing 'How Much Of A Jerk'; and 'Just Let it Happen' is like pure, guilt-free casual sex, with Bernie Taupin furiously taking notes in your closet. The Godmothers make absolutely no apologies for spending their waking hours searching for the perfect melody, and they should treat the idea of doing so like it's a spinal tap... their maiden recording is better than the pop haters deserve, and exactly what the rest of us need in the moments before the room starts spinning and you realize how much you missed your radio."<br>Chris Rausch, Associate Music Editor for the HPR.<br/><br/><br />
<br />
*Getting Used to Disappointment & We're Going Down to the Basement<br>"Why release two full-length albums at the same time? "Because we could," says vocalist and keyboard player John Berdahl. True that – though not all that is capable is advisable. In this case, however, the dual releases give some insight to the Godmothers' instincts. "Disappointment" shows its art-pop side, with field noise and quirky spoken-word samples hanging on acoustic guitar lines. "Basement" is a set of moody dance songs that swings from exuberant to glum and back, bringing to mind The Cars. It's hard to imagine anyone but contrarians preferring the former over the latter."<br>Article written by Dave Roepke, The Forum, Published Tuesday, April 24, 2007<br/><br/><br />
<br />
*Soft Bone<br>"The Moorhead-based band’s new record is absolutely exquisite. Much like the their old records, “Soft Bone†is enjoyably animated, justly quirky and at times strange. But perhaps what’s made our community gush for these blue fairies – after all these years – is their ability to create catchy rock tunes that are wonderfully artistic and charming."<br> Diane Miller, Editor for the HPR, July 18, 2013.<br />

"Ghost Hand Punch derives their sound from a variety of influences. Growing up, John was way into music with swirling harmonies including the Beach Boys and a lot of 60’s psychedelic rock. When he met up with Paul he was introduced to more contemporary music especially “The Elms.†GHP’s music seems to be a combination of these sensibilities."<br />

"Ghost Hand Punch derives their sound from a variety of influences. Growing up, John was way into music with swirling harmonies including the Beach Boys and a lot of 60’s psychedelic rock. When he met up with Paul he was introduced to more contemporary music especially “The Elms.†GHP’s music seems to be a combination of these sensibilities."<br />

<br />
== Highlights ==<br />
<br />
*Popgun<br>"[The] Blue Fairy Godmothers are 90-proof pop music, and their debut [the Popgun EP]... is the music equivalent of a summer popcorn movie with a fresh take on the car chase kicking off the third act, with Ben Folds as the optimistic LAPD detective trying to catch a Blue Album-era Weezer who've made off with his piano licks. And, good Lord, it's fun as hell. 'Popgun' is the feel good hit of the same summer you dumped that body into the lake; Rivers Cuomo hates himself for letting someone else beat him to writing 'How Much Of A Jerk'; and 'Just Let it Happen' is like pure, guilt-free casual sex, with Bernie Taupin furiously taking notes in your closet. The Godmothers make absolutely no apologies for spending their waking hours searching for the perfect melody, and they should treat the idea of doing so like it's a spinal tap... their maiden recording is better than the pop haters deserve, and exactly what the rest of us need in the moments before the room starts spinning and you realize how much you missed your radio."<br>Chris Rausch, Associate Music Editor for the HPR.<br/><br/><br />
<br />
*Getting Used to Disappointment & We're Going Down to the Basement<br>"Why release two full-length albums at the same time? "Because we could," says vocalist and keyboard player John Berdahl. True that – though not all that is capable is advisable. In this case, however, the dual releases give some insight to the Godmothers' instincts. "Disappointment" shows its art-pop side, with field noise and quirky spoken-word samples hanging on acoustic guitar lines. "Basement" is a set of moody dance songs that swings from exuberant to glum and back, bringing to mind The Cars. It's hard to imagine anyone but contrarians preferring the former over the latter."<br>Article written by Dave Roepke, The Forum, Published Tuesday, April 24, 2007<br/><br/><br />
<br />
*Soft Bone<br>"The Moorhead-based band’s new record is absolutely exquisite. Much like the their old records, “Soft Bone†is enjoyably animated, justly quirky and at times strange. But perhaps what’s made our community gush for these blue fairies – after all these years – is their ability to create catchy rock tunes that are wonderfully artistic and charming."<br> Diane Miller, Editor for the HPR, July 18, 2013.<br />

<br />
*Popgun<br>"[The] Blue Fairy Godmothers are 90-proof pop music, and their debut [the Popgun EP]... is the music equivalent of a summer popcorn movie with a fresh take on the car chase kicking off the third act, with Ben Folds as the optimistic LAPD detective trying to catch a Blue Album-era Weezer who've made off with his piano licks. And, good Lord, it's fun as hell. 'Popgun' is the feel good hit of the same summer you dumped that body into the lake; Rivers Cuomo hates himself for letting someone else beat him to writing 'How Much Of A Jerk'; and 'Just Let it Happen' is like pure, guilt-free casual sex, with Bernie Taupin furiously taking notes in your closet. The Godmothers make absolutely no apologies for spending their waking hours searching for the perfect melody, and they should treat the idea of doing so like it's a spinal tap... their maiden recording is better than the pop haters deserve, and exactly what the rest of us need in the moments before the room starts spinning and you realize how much you missed your radio." Chris Rausch, Associate Music Editor for the HPR.<br/><br />
<br />
*Getting Used to Disappointment & We're Going Down to the Basement<br>"Why release two full-length albums at the same time? "Because we could," says vocalist and keyboard player John Berdahl. True that – though not all that is capable is advisable. In this case, however, the dual releases give some insight to the Godmothers' instincts. "Disappointment" shows its art-pop side, with field noise and quirky spoken-word samples hanging on acoustic guitar lines. "Basement" is a set of moody dance songs that swings from exuberant to glum and back, bringing to mind The Cars. It's hard to imagine anyone but contrarians preferring the former over the latter."<br>Article written by Dave Roepke, The Forum, Published Tuesday, April 24, 2007<br />
<br />
*Soft Bone<br>"The Moorhead-based band’s new record is absolutely exquisite. Much like the their old records, “Soft Bone†is enjoyably animated, justly quirky and at times strange. But perhaps what’s made our community gush for these blue fairies – after all these years – is their ability to create catchy rock tunes that are wonderfully artistic and charming."<br> Diane Miller, Editor for the HPR, July 18, 2013.<br />

*Soft Bone<br>"The Moorhead-based band’s new record is absolutely exquisite. Much like the their old records, “Soft Bone†is enjoyably animated, justly quirky and at times strange. But perhaps what’s made our community gush for these blue fairies – after all these years – is their ability to create catchy rock tunes that are wonderfully artistic and charming."<br> Diane Miller, Editor for the HPR, July 18, 2013.<br />

*Briefly known as the Jug Band Ghost Band, then JBGB's before settling on the Blue Fairy Godmothers moniker.<br/><br />
*[[image: BFG1.jpg|thumb|right]]"[The] Blue Fairy Godmothers are 90-proof pop music, and their debut [the Popgun EP]... is the music equivalent of a summer popcorn movie with a fresh take on the car chase kicking off the third act, with Ben Folds as the optimistic LAPD detective trying to catch a Blue Album-era Weezer who've made off with his piano licks. And, good Lord, it's fun as hell. 'Popgun' is the feel good hit of the same summer you dumped that body into the lake; Rivers Cuomo hates himself for letting someone else beat him to writing 'How Much Of A Jerk'; and 'Just Let it Happen' is like pure, guilt-free casual sex, with Bernie Taupin furiously taking notes in your closet. The Godmothers make absolutely no apologies for spending their waking hours searching for the perfect melody, and they should treat the idea of doing so like it's a spinal tap... their maiden recording is better than the pop haters deserve, and exactly what the rest of us need in the moments before the room starts spinning and you realize how much you missed your radio."
