Praise for Black Part of Light: 

"OK Vancouver OK prove why they’ve been an indispensable fixture in the West Coast music underground for over a decade. The pleasant rhythm and backing vocals on “Black Part of Light” provide a solid base, counter-balancing the undisciplined lead vocals and whimsical instrumental flourishes. These guys could give a Weird Tuesday clinic" - Mark Anthony Brennan / Ride the Tempo 2016




I N F L U E N C E S ( 2014)

Praise for Influences:

 "While Influences lacks a standout track, this appears deliberate. The album, in its entirety, is a dreamy masterpiece. It takes form after a complete listen, with the bass and guitar ebbing and flowing from song-to-song, while up-tempo beats from the drums provide an overall unique mood. Ok Vancouver Ok has succeeded in producing a smooth sound filled with hazy, raw individuality." - Discorder Magazine, 2015

 "Just love that band so much" - Zach Burba, Iji front man

 "Jeff Johnson’s approach to songwriting is without boundaries or barriers. Rules weren’t even a consideration, so the emotion in the music cuts clean through. Very refreshing and interesting music to listen to while sober or medicated." - Jesse Gander, Rice and Bread Mag, 2014 

FOOD SHELTER WATER (2013)



Praise for Food Shelter Water:
