“For the past decade I've watched Janice hone her craft and work hard to become one of the premier Texas female country vocalists today. Kudos to a busy woman who proves her talent with hard work and determination. She handles the stage, the band, and the crowd like a true professional.”

“Janice Maynard – I’ll Take My Chances. Here she is folks, five –foot nothing, as pretty as anyone you know, and a true cognizance of what “country music” is. She spent about three years at Bobby Flores studio making this right, and you can find it on Bobby’s Yellow Rose Records. Incorporating Bobby, and fiddle star Hank Singer, as well as Jake Hooker, Jim Loessberg and the great Leona Williams, Janice has arrived and has made the traditional country world sit up and take notice. The whole cd is worthwhile.”

“This is “I’ll Take My Chances”, second CD by Janice Maynard, a young talented singer who leads us through the deepest sounds of her native land. I must say that this CD has a very classical sound to it and leaves no room for country-pop music.”

“This is one of the best Traditional Country recordings to come out of Texas in a long, long time. This is one incredible listening experience and journey through classic Country music...featuring powerful duets with Leona Williams and Bobby Flores! Janice penned several of these songs and is fast emerging as one of the most beautiful and soulful singers in Country music today! You may have seen and heard her on the Shotgun Red Show, RFD's Tru-Country and others. This is a must have for Country music lovers everywhere! You're gonna love it!”

“Following the release of her second album, I'll Take My Chances, the traditional country singer talks to Digital Journal. Beautiful, talented, family-oriented, from a musical background and pleasantly outgoing, it's easy to say why this proud Texan and well-grounded mother of four (her 16 year-old son plays lead guitar in her band and her 18-year-old daughter sings backing vocals) has been making waves on the Texas Country scene since the 2010 release of her first long-playing effort, There's A Better Way.”

“This week, Janice Maynard released her second CD and makes her debut as a song-writer. I'll Take My Chances is sure to light a fire with fans of Traditional Country Music, and as a writer, Janice proves she has what it takes to be taken seriously in a highly competitive industry.”

“Janice Maynard impressed me with her debut a few years ago, and the prospect of a Bobby Flores produced set on his Yellow Rose label was an exciting one to me, and doesn’t disappoint. In fact, it’s even better than I might have hoped for. Janice has written or co-written half the tracks here and the new songs easily hold their own in such esteemed company. She and Bobby Flores penned the stunning This Is The End Of My World, and the ballad highlights the purity of Maynard’s voice. The shuffle, You’re What Makes The World Go Round is another Maynard/Flores song, and I assure you, this is one Ray Price would have been proud of. Heavenly would be the best word to describe it. The Man You’ve Turned Into highlights how Janice’s own writing is rooted in classic country music. It doesn’t get much better or more stone country than this folks. They could offer a double your money back to punters who didn’t like it and I don’t think they’d get any returns. It really is both ”

" Janice, whose voice I've recently seen described as being reminiscent of Janie Fricke, had me on the dance floor with her take of I'll Need Someone To Hold Me (When I Cry). With control of the band, and adding one well-suited cover after another, Janice, showing her strength as front person, kept the room engaged. Before turning the set over to the band for an instrumental (Orange Blossom Special), Janice made sure to introduce the band, which included husband Ricky on acoustic guitar, brother in law Jerry on acoustic guitar, brother in law Steve on Piano, her son on electric guitar, her daughter doing background vocals, and then the drummer, the lead guitar player and the bass player and the fiddle player and the steel guitar player. A full band was present to say the least! All the players did a commendable job, especially long time favorite David Leroy Biller on steel." " - Donnie Ayers, Country Music People Magazine (Aug 01, 2012)

““I just love Janice and the whole Maynard family. Her husband and the whole family play in the band and are directly involved. They remind me of us,” says Leona Williams. “Everybody in Liberty Hill should be proud of her. She represents her hometown so well.””

“Visit Janice’s Myspace page to hear beautiful country music. Every song is wonderful, starting with “Tired Of Losing You”. Janice’s beautiful voice is obvious as every song plays. “I Wouldn’t Go That Far” tempts the listener with a great intro, and when the fiddles play the songs blooms with beauty and paints a great picture. “There’s A Better Way” is a country music fan’s dream, while “Even If You Ask Me To” really highlights Janice’s beautiful voice. “Baby I’ve Got You” rounds out a fantastic playlist on Myspace. A Youtube video of “Baby I’ve Got You”, written by Steve Maynard, just adds to a wonderful visitor experience. We added the video to our “Stars Of Texas” video library because that’s where Janice Maynard belongs. Listen to her music and I’m sure you’ll agree ”
