In Guards We Trust has received overwhelming acclaim since its release earlier this year. Esquire named the band one of "15 Music Artists to Watch in 2013" and Vogue selected them as "Band of the Week," with additional praise coming from Stereogum , Pitchfork , Wall Street Journal, Buzzfeed , and Elle , among others. The music video for their hit single "Ready To Go" premiered a few months back across multiple channels at MTV (MTV2, MTVu, MTV Buzzworthy Blog, MTV Hive and VH1.com) and can be viewed here. Their highly-buzzed SXSW appearances earned them a spot at the top of several festival roundups, including NPR Music, who selected the band as one of " 15 Essential Moments From SXSW 2013 ," praising, "I walked across the street to the Empire Control Room, toward the sound of good, strong, guitar-laden pop...I loved what I was hearing."
Founded in New York City by singer Richie Follin, Guards also features Kaylie Church and Loren Humphrey.
