“And sure enough when I was given music from Malynda Hale, I found a really talented, way under-the-radar artist with great material and a passion that a lot of mainstream artists lack. Malynda Hale, based in New York City, by way of Southern California, has just released her debut record, The Train Ride Home. It’s a powerful yet catchy blend of songs, ranging from straight up R&B to more singer-songwriter inspired pieces. There’s a deep undercurrent of pop throughout, but not the bubble gum stuff that infests the radio. Rather, a more organic approach to the genre really pushed this collection of music out of the "been there, heard that" paradigm for me.The album starts off with “City Lights." Hale comes out strong vocally, and is buoyed along with a stellar chorus. Hale has a strong melodic sense. Other winning tracks include “Fallin” and “Another World." The one real standout track is “Only You," showcasing Hale’s vocal ability and songwriting. ”

— Scott Deitche, Blog Critics

“Fusing pop with rhythm and blues is a bold move that Malynda proudly tackled. The results turned out to be her greatest work yet. It is fantastic. Malynda possesses a powerful voice that easily takes command of any audience. Her range is excellent and The Train Ride Home shows just how diverse she really is. From the very first note to the final refrain Malynda shows just how passionate she is about her music. This is perhaps why Malynda states, “When I think of songs that stick most with me, they’re the ones that come from the singer’s heart. That’s what I try to do with my music – each piece I sing and write comes from my heart and experiences.” There are lot of emotions in The Train Ride Home and it certainly shows. ”

— ESTHER CALLENS , The Birmingham Times

“In retrospect, after a few spins I simply couldn’t resist the talented Malynda Hale’s strong, evocative and powerful lyrics. As a songwriter, her lyricism exudes with unyielding compassion that’s uplifting and her warmth captures the intimacy of her life experiences is appropriate for any setting. Malynda has a winner with this album, her sound is rich and heartfelt lyrics are a perfect combo which makes this an attractive mix of music to listen too.”

— Rob Young, The Urban Flux

“A singer/songwriter inspired by Colbie Caillat and Gavin DeGraw as well as Alicia Keys comes forward with a sound reflecting urban styles for a new urban sensibility. A high energy charmer for kids comfortable with multi cultural streets, this set rests easily in the gulf between pop and soul that’s going to have to make the tastemakers come up with a new name for this kind of sound that addresses unity rather than separation. Hale rocks. ”

— Chris Spector, Midwest Record

“Malynda’s voice seems to have the essence of the classic vocalist likes of Regina Belle, just smooth enough to carry over the upbeat tempo of some of the songs while her voice is strong enough to stand out as a premiere vocalist on the come up. What I like most about the album is that she explores different sounds that typically an R&B artist might shy away from worrying about conveying the emotions and ideas that are often associated with this type of music. ”

— On the 8 with Nae, Nerdy Boi Media

“ I found Malynda’s song to be something that caught my ear. Right from the get go it’s the hook of the music grabbing me and pulling me right in. The song is there. It’s thumpin from a writing standpoint. Hooky piano, hooky bass, and a groovin drum loop. Malynda’s voice comes in and starts flowering over the top. I really like the chorus when it pops on. From that aspect it’s ready as can be.”

— Jody, Single of the Day

“Pop, R&B and Gospel enthusiasts you are in store for a pleasant experience with one of the brightest singer/songwriters raised in Santa Barbara, California, Malynda Hale. She is releasing a new album titled The Train Ride Home. Her music is strong, upbeat, and soulful. Be the first to be uplifted with her heartfelt lyrics. ”

— Cassandra Bautista, The Hollywood Examiner

“What a privilege it is for me to have this job discovering and interviewing such incredible talent as you are about to meet with this wonderful artist. What I like about Malynda is that she knows exactly who she is and where she wants to be. She speaks with self respect in a sophisticated manner and her trained voice and natural charisma pulls you in like a magnet.”

— Bruce Maier, Damn Good Tunes

“What a pleasant surprise Malynda Hale is! When I opened the e-mail that contained Malynda's info, I had no idea what a treat I was in for. This So-Cal born singer has a mighty bright future ahead of her. After the first track I heard I thought, "She's dope. Different." After the second song I was talking to her manager. Sooo.... expect to see an interview with Ms. Hale late March.”
