“For first time listeners, Jennings is an artist that will make people sit up and take note, not just of her singing but of her songwriting. She really is the real deal, but for those fans who have been listening for awhile, well they know that already. ”

— Mossip

“Mary Jennings knows how to deliver a song. Her highly personal and emotional singing style is raw and captivating. It’s the sort of performance that keeps audiences rapt with attention; leaning in toward the stage do they don’t miss a thing. Take It Or Leave It captures the energy and power of a Jennings performance for those who haven’t been lucky enough to see her live, or for those who have and want to recapture the moment. Don’t miss this album. Rating: 4.5 Stars (Out of 5) ”

— Wildy Haskell, Wildy's World

“No matter if she is performing with her full backing band; or on her trademark Casio synthesizer, looping harmonies and instrumentation; or even if she is playing on an acoustic piano, you still get the same explosive effect- the same full, mind-blowing sound. That is the mark of a true musician.”

— Tanya Fields, Harmonious Flame

“Jennings is a fiery siren that packs a big punch in a small package. With an incredible vocal range, immaculate control, and passionate words, Jennings is a must see when she stops into your town.”

— Rachel Stemerman, Underground Sound

“Jennings’ “Cling to Me” is a pure joy to listen to and has the timeless songwriting magic of top songs like Adele’s “Someone Like You” and Sarah McLachlan’s “Angel”. Jennings is certainly one to hold on to. ”
