Green Pond 2005 / RLDl Records



"Eleven dreamy escapes...simple instrumentation. The record also has some noisy parts that fit the rest of the material very well, listen to 'Forest Walk' ....That Justine has grown as an artist is quite obvious; this is beautiful. Pure balm for the soul."      - Nephilius

"...hits just the right quiet note of a chlorophyll-enriched, cricket-happy daydream." - SF Bay Guardian

"Herbert has managed to put together quite a pretty album..." - Punk Planet

"It's music that goes along with something, whether that is an activity, a dream or just a session of deep thinking. ....If you want some atmospheric dreamy background music, this is a great bet." - Collected Sounds

Fiji Mermaid ep (extended play) * 2001 Now on Itunes for only $4.95

Remastered for Itunes, so the volume is just right.

"Five little pop ditties that work surprisingly well." - Indieville

A five-song Ep which garnered college radio airplay in the SF Bay Area and at NYU. The Ep has the same instrumentation as Green Pond -- keyboards, vocals and classical guitar.

"Far from the norm, yet catchy and enjoyable, nonetheless... These five songs have a very eerie feeling to them, that provides a spooky, mind-numbing musical trip for the listener.... worthwhile to listen to, especially if you're looking for something new and different." - Indieville

All songs by Fiji Mermaid.
