“Fleurine with her appealingly mellow tone, focuses on Brazilian music with an evocative jazz lilt.” - The New York Times

"Brazilian chic has nudged its way for two generations into pop and jazz, but few insinuate as distinctively candid and original an interpretation as does vocalist Fleurine. Her tender, personal smile-through the tears lyrics - some in Portuguese, some her translation from Portuguese or original English lyric...." - Downbeat Magazine
