~"Hi Trent, I love your version of My Other Voice! It sounds wonderful. Thanks for doing that. It gave me a big smile! Take care and best wishes, Russell/sparks" -Russell mael

"Dear T.V., Thank you for your good vibes! Do all the stuff that you love too!
PARTY HARD and ENJOY LIFE RIGHT NOW!
Love, Andrew W.K."

"Not many can rock the squared-off Charlie Chaplin mustache and sea captain hat like the toy piano/guitar-playing T.V. Coahran, a musician as eccentric looking as he sounds. His songs are charming lo-fi pop concoctions, whose key creative ingredients must stem from huffing magic markers with Ariel Pink, watching a Sid and Marty Krofft children’s program on mute, and listening to The Beatles, forward and backward. With acoustic guitar, bass, the aforementioned toy piano, micro Korg, and drums all factored in, his music draws the boundaries of where the imagination can go – somewhere between a colorful, lucid dream or a demented clown nightmare. And the kids really dig it, as witnessed when he and his band played SW's REVRBfest in October. Tonight’s show, benefiting The Bikery, a local non-profit community bike workshop, is all-ages as well so don’t forget the children! With Ribbons and Grand Hallway."

"T.V. Coahran was the biggest surprise of the day. At first he played a song on the guitar, then made his way to the Micro-Korg and toy piano for another few, before bringing a band, including Charles Leo Gebhardt IV on bass. It came out sounding like psychedelic pop for the kids. In fact, a number of kids were present for this curious figure, and they all seemed to enjoy themselves along with their parents." TRAVIS RITTER [seattle weekly]

"Though never a "frontman" before now, Seattle singer-songwriter T. V. Coahran has always been the kind of musician who lent interesting and original input to every band in which he appeared. Playing in both Popular Shapes and Holy Ghost Revival in the last four years, Coahran has built a reputation as one of the more inventive guitarists in the local bizarro art-punk community. The exhilarating hooks that once issued from his guitar and ran wild through the frantic landscape painted by the Popular Shapes' rhythm section haven't softened. Now, however, they've mutated into the greater substance of his solo music." BILL BULLOCK [the stranger]
