"Since its inception in 2010, The Travel Guide has earned a reputation for rousing live shows and smart, dynamic songs have grown the quartet a loyal following in the Midwest, but now, with the release of the album Trading A Dream, the Kansas band has added an extra arrow to its quiver. Featuring tunes honed to a fine point on the stage, the album is a rare-commodity: tuneful yet tinged with hints of the experimental, smart but unpretentious, new but familiar and loaded with unforgettable compositions from one end to the other." - Jedd Beaudoin KMUW
