It was evident as their tours got longer and further away in 2010 and 2012. And their Third full-length album "Pipe Dreams," released in 2012, is made huge waves as these herbal advocates mix many styles to create a fresh new sound. They have 6 major awards under their belt including the Sac shows Local Music Awards two years in a row for "Best Reggae/Rock/Funk band." And recently inducted into the "Sacramento's Rock Hall Of Fame Look for them to roll through your town in 2012 as their tour schedule will span all the way to the east coast and possibly overseas! "We love the herb, it come straight from the Earth like grain."
“For Arden Park Roots’ third album (Pipe Dreams), the bros (Tyler Campbell, vocals and rhythm guitar; Jason Duvall, drums; Nick Ledoux, guitar; and Spencer Murphy, bass) turned a dream into reality: They got to record with super-producer Scott Matthews (Elvis Costello, Keith Richards, Roy Orbison, Joey Ramone). After an idyllic month of working in Matthews’ Mill Valley studio, APR emerged with the aptly titled Pipe Dreams, a rock/reggae album that resonates with deep bass tones, crisp horns and stony-ass California vibes. ” Josh Fernandez - Sacramento News and Review [http://www.newsreview.com/sacramento/dream-turned-real/content?oid=4466744]
“Arden Park Roots... (a) local foursome consisting of vocalist/guitarist Tyler Campbell, lead guitarist Nick Ledoux (aka “El Guapo”), bassist Spencer Murphy and drummer Jonny Snickerpippitz, have become road warriors, logging thousands of miles over the past couple years both in support of their self-released 2008 full-length album The Hard Way and as their alter-ego Sublime tribute band, The Livin’s Easy. (They are) polished but not over-produced.... They rock, they can bring the party; (and) they do it with...class.”

“One performer was also an award recipient and that honor went to Arden Park Roots. They played an incredible show and got both sides of the Tropicana on their feet. Their energy remained in the club for the rest of the evening.” David Alvarez - Sacramento Press [http://www.sacramentopress.com/headline/38663/2nd_Annual_Sac_Shows_Local_Music_Awards]
