“For Natalie Zoe, The High Road isn't merely another CD, but rather a promise she made to herself and didn't know it. Such is this "career" album, with production by AJ Vallejo, which brims with the confidence only time brings ("Put the Posse on It," "It's Too Hot"). Zoe hits the Road with a brash, unfettered look at the three L's: life, love, and loss, minus any middle-age self-pity or curlicue endings. ”

“Natalie looks fabulous at 60, as you can see in “The High Road” video. And you should hear the new disc, a life’s map of her journeys as produced by A.J.Vallejo and featuring mostly Zoe's guitar playing. Songs such as “Wanted Man” are clearly the voice of experience, but isn’t that why you’re listening to someone like Natalie Zoe?”

“Natalie Zoe makes fun music. Her airy, beautiful voice, crack sideman and intrepid songwriting skills make for one of the most consistently entertaining singer-songwriters Austin has working at the moment. The High Road retains Zoe’s spark. The songs dig deep and find Natalie at her soulful best.”

“Natalie Zoe's Seven Chords and the Truth places the veteran Austin singer-songwriter where she belongs – at the forefront of her estimable genre. Her easy, alluring vocals on "Nocturnal Reverie" and the bittersweet sentiment of "Winter" are testament to the maturation of her craft over three decades, much as her tenure singing with Malford Milligan imbues a soulful Seventies edge to "Do Me Like That," "Judge & Jury," and "Every Teardrop". ”
