"We hear a phenomenal voice that sings its own roots, deeply penetrating in heart and soul. Spiritual with full spirit."
-Guy Cuypers, Rootstime Belgium
“Sometimes, the only thing that can soothe your soul is some of those good ole, down-home blues from somebody that sings ’em,and sings ’em well. If that’s what you need, then you came to the right place, ’cause, straight outta Chicago, we are proud to present our review for one of the biggest, purest, voices in all of the contemporary arena, Sugar Queen”
–Don Crow, The Nashville Blues & Roots Alliance, USA
