MH-260 Her Space Holiday - XOXO, Panda And The New Kid Revival  Putting some space between himself and the computer that has provided the basis for so much of his recent work, Marc Bianchi has taken the last two years to focus on what got him into music in the first place, writing connective songs and working out the layers of sound he hears in his head. The results are a new persona, XOXO, Panda, and the reinforcement of the feelings of personal and artistic freedom that drive his music. Loose and carefree arrangements of guitar, bass, banjo, mandolin, shakers, glockenspiel, and drums lay the foundation for vocal storytelling sing-a-longs. XOXO, Panda And The New Kid Revival is a brilliant calling card for Her Space Holiday’s newly awakened alter-ego, and a watershed moment in his growth as a songwriter and performer. |

| Reviews Summary |
| ..easily the best feel good album in a long time - Under The Gun // Bianchi has a clear layer of resigned melancholy that cuts through his voice, no matter how full of wonder his lyrics are - Tiny Mix Tapes // his child-like glee rings true - PopMatters // hints at the sunny surf-rock of the 1960s - Lost At Sea // for those early morning trips through the mountains through towns where folk musicians sing and dance to the lonely - Igloo |
