Press

"There's a touch of David Lynch in the cinematic sensibilities of these songs. The darkly voluptuous groove that defines this album conjures up images of creaking houseboats and illicit encounters in seaside joints. There's a drawling sensuality in both Angie Mattson's delivery and in the big fleshy guitar riffs that populate the background."

— Barbara Bruederlin, No Depression

“it’s on the black-hatted and possibly dark-hearted Americana that her voice really shines ”

— Kevin Bronson, Buzz Bands

"Without warning, the petite Ms. Mattson had the audience entranced by her hypnotic, ethereal voice"

— Nikki Pierce, Culture Mob Philadelphia

"she is unbelievable...her amazing voice felt as though she was singing to you directly..Her sound is similar to that of Florence and the Machine..folksy with just enough rock and roll to shake things up nicely"

— Jamie Hunter, The News Argus

“elevating above standard folkie fare with an adroit mix of six-string feedback, a big tom backbeat, and subtle synth touches”

— LimeWire Store

“Think: the deeper bluesier moments of Bob Dylan, CCR, the Doors and the Stones and you’ll start to get at what Mattson is alluding to.”

— powerofpop.com

“an authenticity of the era when music, even the blues, was uplifting”

— Twangville

"..her music is filled with a near erotic intimacy: sparse, atmospheric Americana with sharp, imagistic lyrics, great guitar playing and a velvet voice."

— Neil McCormick, Daily Telegraph

“Angie Mattson's songwriting has all the whispering sweetness and emotional upheaval that's so prevelant in the music of Aimee Mann and Cowboy Junkies. It's a good place to be. "Thank You" shuffles along with a bit of sunburnt twang while Mattson spells out this tale of impassioned gratitude.”

— iTunes

"a superb record"

— Curve
