Press

“Dahlia Wakefield hails from Alberta, Canada and has a superb voice that effortlessly blends together country and pop. Her latest album FULL CIRCLE features eight memorable songs all written or at least co-written by Dahlia. ... “Winter In Alberta” is another excellent song with a lovely country-pop feel. Once again Alan Tymofichuk plays acoustic and electric guitar, giving the song added depth and atmosphere.”

— Sara Hunt, Maverick - The UK's Leading Independent Country Music Magazine

“Singer-songwriter says she ‘can’t be pigeonholed into a specific genre’ ... Full Circle is an "eclectic collection of eight songs with flavours of pop, rock, reggae and latin, with an underlying alternative-country feel throughout."”

— Calli Forbes, Sherwood Park News

“Dahlia Wakefield's third outing is easily her most focused and well-thought out album to date. With FULL CIRCLE, the Edmonton native has indeed completed this leg of her musical journey, returning to the roots of her musical soul after a five year hiatus...an enjoyable ride that smoothly shifts gears. Her new album is lull-free, and engages the listener from beginning to end, in an overall well-crafted album. ”

— CD review: Full Circle by Dan Brisebois, Canadian Bands.com

“DOWN THIS ROAD is full of emotion, strong production, and is bristling with energy, whether it's the cover of Nik Kershaw's "Wouldn't It Be Good," to any of a number of the potential chart hits. Dahlia's vocal prowess is easily and without question one of the strongest on the Alberta scene. ”

— Dan Brisebois, CanCon Rox

“With a sexy-smokey voice and an aggressive delivery that says you’re-gonna-love-me-now, Dahlia Wakefield puts the hammer down on nine original tracks of country rock on her new release “Down This Road”.”

— Darryl Gregory, Unsigned Underground

“Down This Road CD Review: Cool record for those who like their pop with great vocals, clever lyrics and a little bit of an edge. ”

— Amy Lotsberg, Collected Sounds

“Down This Road: "This is a highly listenable album... a collection of well-written songs full of memorable melodies and soul-deep lyrics." ”

— Robert Mills, Maverick Country Music magazine (UK)

“Wakefield is a songwriter with a strong sense of groove and powerful singing chops. Fans of power pop and great singing will enjoy “Close to Home”. ”

— Stacey Board, Muses Muse

“Close To Home CD Review: "Dahlia Wakefield is a bit of Faith Hill on the high notes, a bit of Cher on the low notes, and a lot of sensuality through the whole CD. Nashville denizens would swoon if they heard this music." ”

— Jennifer Layton, Indie-Music.com

Questions

Ask Dahlia Wakefield anything...

Q: Which recording studio produced this excellent music Dahlia and is it true you have retired engineer Gary Dere behind the scenes?

A: Hi Kole - I can't believe I just saw this now! Sorry about the delay! Three amazing producers lent their talents to these songs - Jim Stoeber, Tommy Schaaf, and yes - you guessed it - Gerry Dere! He produced Winter in Alberta, Beautiful and The Bird Flies Away :) He also produced my very first version of "I Believe". Thanks for writing to me! Have a great day! :)
