Michael Steinman of Jazz Lives says: "A very sweet and naughty performance - it was fifty degrees outside when I played it for the first time, but the apartment's temperature rose noticeably."

Pete Carma of StreetCred Music says: "The tunes are wonderful... charming approach to the jazz classics makes me want more!... a voice made for jazz, great range and a sultry feminine sound".
