From The Reno Gazette Journal December 2018

Carl Elizondo & The Royal Union Of Architects, retro Brit-rock. “Pauper Millionaire”...A grandiose ticket back to 1966, when the British Invasion greats (the Beatles, the Stones, the Kinks) we’re pushing pop’s boundaries-as were two American Beach Boys named Brian Wilson and Mike Love. Carl Elizondo takes listeners on a harmonious journey back to that halcyon era. “Pauper Millionaire” clocks in richly at 5:41 and elicits singalong “ahs”
