Sleeps Six Reviews by MuchMusic & magazine press
Another point of the year-end list is to turn you on to some brilliant musicians that you've probably never heard of. Possum, Laura Repo, The Undesirables and Sleeps Six, for example, haven't even released CD's as of this writing: but they're all going to, and they're all talented artists and great live acts worth seeking out. -Howard Druckman Music Editor, Chart Magazine I have been fortunate enough to have had Pauline show me her songs through all their various stages of development, and it is my opinion that she is up to something that I am not hearing elsewhere. That opinion is also shared by other industry folks in my neck of the woods that have heard her demos... -Mike Campbell - Host/Producer of MuchEast Sleeps Six have been gaining increasing attention for putting a fresh face on the often tired sound of roots/folk based music. The band is fronted by Pauline Groen's soaring, passionate vocals, her ear for dark, haunting melodies and powerful, brooding writing. Ranging from slippery Cowboyesque melodies to fiery confessions at the altar of love and religion, Sleeps Six turn acoustic music into a full out assault on the senses. The forceful nature of the songs is complimented by a dynamic and well versed band that knows how to change gears effortlessly. -C'est What artist review, Toronto ....Pauline is musically blessed with both a talent for writing fresh and evocative melodies, and a unique, beautifully haunting voice... -Carlos Lopes - Post Script Music Productions Groen is a statuesque presence, evocative and haunting vocals, music that cultivates that feeling of intimacy, potent imagery, and chilling beauty. The room felt the heartland, a full sound that will touch your heart. -Lonely Vagabound, myspace music buff/indie reviewer

Sleeps Six selected as finalist! (May 26/2010) by ReviewPosse song contest
May 26, 2010 - Sleeps Six – What Do You Mean? | Finalist | Expose Yourself Song Contest Sleeps Six |Founded by Pauline Groen, who’s strong and unique captivating voice immediately hook you for the duration. The band is in no rush to make their statements and as such we have a strong slow rock meter with gooey delicious slide guitar, trapping you in a delicious, cacophony of hook filled melody that will make you hit the replay button over and over. Pauline and the band have retro country blues folk rock feel that does so well at summer festivals and would sound outstanding at bigger venues. Look for a new release titled “Late Enough”, due in 2010 and immediately buy it.
