"So when is an art chick not an art chick?  Back In the 70s, professors in writer’s programs kept reminding their charges they couldn’t write if they didn’t read.  This jazz thrush writes her own but she isn’t afraid to mix Van Morrison, Abbey Lincoln, Bill Evans and others next to her own tunes fearlessly letting them stand up to some serious competition.  Then there’s the singing aspect.  Scat on “Moondance”?  This gal isn’t afraid to color outside the lines while retaining a sense of making it work.  A singing jazz baby for a nu generation, she manages to keep a foot in the old and new generations without losing her balance.  Hot stuff." Chris Spector, Midwest Record
