"She is Candace Devine, and she has to be good—she was a backup singer for Christina Aguilera. In order to prop up that big vox, yours better be meaty, too.

And it was. Big, bold, beautiful, ballsy." -Blackbook Magazine

"I got the chance to sit and chat with the Soulful songstress after being in ah of her vocal prowess and dynamic stage presence during a powerhouse performance (At The Roxy). Candace Devine has the vocal chops of Taylor Dane and Joss Stone rolled into one, and the dynamic stage presence of Christina Aguilera. Even with those comparisons Candace Devine has a pure throw- back original smooth Soul sound all her own and she is truly taking the L.A. music scene by storm and bringing traditional Soul Music back into the
mainstream." - Associated Content
