"Her voice ricochets off the snapping bop beat like light bouncing off of a prism... She uses her native language to aural effect on the brooding 'Snow Day', while her take of Stevie Wonder's 'Blame it on the Sun'...has folk nuances, like gentle shades allowing sun to gleam through."

- George Harris [All About Jazz, Bay Area/Chicago]

"A unique voice” - Richard Dyer [Boston Globe]
