"This band has molded a blend of jazz, funk, and rock with a style and fluidity that is seldom seen in an un-signed act. I highly recommend checking out one of their shows. " http://www.atlantashows.com - Lefty
"...commands your attention...
intense,emotive, hypnotic vocal performances which instantly elevates them above so many other bands in this genre...a multi-textured, musical canvas she skillfully uses to paint dazzling stories with pure emotion and clever lyrics as her tools...
With lyrics like that it was very easy to maintain my concentration on the creative and musical potency of this band."
