Kate Olson “...straight-ahead jazz, a fastball right over the heart of the plate, and it's terrific...What's especially gratifying about this project is that it provides her the space to reveal the extent of her lyricism and to bring it to full bloom.”
Nathan Borton “Borton makes being a hip, swinging, soulful guitar player, relevant again.”

George Fludas “Adept, with a pulse of swinging ease.”
