Press

“This video is dope in its purest form.”

— Editor, Ampedsounds.com

“This girl has an uncommon gift for melody and the arrangements one encounters as one traverses this album never fail to surprise and impress. Indeed, there is a marked sophistication to many of Nehedar’s songs which belie their self-written origins and credit for this must surely go to arranger and producer Craig Levy whose sympathetic approach to Nehedar’s craft represents a union of rare concordance.”

— Andy Roles, Lyric Lounge Review

“Cataldo keeps things interesting as the Nanci Griffth/Shawn Colvin only holds for part of the album before she stretches the boundaries into upbeat indie-rock (“Take It Apart” and “The Song No One Hears”) and blues/soul (“Dig Deep” and “Baby, I’m Falling”). Cataldo’s most distinguishing asset is her strong and natural vocals which shine on the ethereal “Intro” and the plaintive and minimalist “Ocean”. The disc goes out on a charmingly goofy note with “Countdown the Days” which is a darkly jolly number that could serve as a drinking song to “countdown the days until your dead”.”

— Mike, Brooklyn Rocks

“Cataldo has the kind of voice that can handle a pop hook with finesse, but she usually seems to find a way to write a lyric or throw in a discordant thread that raises her song above the usual pop pap. ”

— Jack Goodstein , blogcritics.org

“I still reserve the right to dislike ‘singer / songwriter’ material, but it’s artists like NEHEDAR that are making my prejudices more and more difficult to substantiate!”

— Colin Jackson, Loud Horizon

“This album - Emilia Cataldo's fifth- is a beautifully and deceptively simple pop rock record that after a few listens became a joy to behold.”

— Did Y'all Hear That?

“Perhaps what stands out most about the album is its overarching natural sound. Nehedar is consistently clean and pleasant, and Cataldo’s pure, light voice recalls that of Zooey Deschanel’s. Raw musical talent like this – one that shines even independent of today’s special effects – is a rare gem indeed.”

— Julie Israel, Darlingdork.com

“This is a female singer-songwriter that breaks free of the well-trod genre constraints, whom makes an album that will stand the test of time.”

— James McQuiston , Neufutur

“I even liked it.”

— Frans de Waal, Vital Weekly

“Indie pop singer/songwriter Nehedar has a way with merging the catchy and the profound, and this balance is evident here with this wonderfully sweet yet sobering track and music video for "Pretty Young Thing".”

— Editor, blrag.com

“There’s a certain surefootedness to the album. Every step taken – even when on tricky ground – takes the songs forward and much of what keeps these songs on the ground is the sumptuous and sophisticated production, which takes turns at presenting retro synth sounds as well as modern pop mixes.”

— The Editor, Jamsphere

“You can tell she has put her entire heart and soul into every note. Her music comes from a place of dreams, hopes and fears that are all worth fighting for. This CD is a movement, something that may be bigger than your every day average release; and it dances in your mind long after the player has been turned off.”

— Rebecca Hosking, Skope Mag

“Something strange happened on this album half way through the first track. Some subtle things start to bloom if you listen closely. And not too long after the first track “They Lied” there is a great variety of tracks that are amusingly and entertainingly unique. Quirky would be the most appropriate word, but even that doesn’t describe it in full.”

— Nick Wan, 402 Reviews

“singer-songwriter Emilia Cataldo mixes driving indie rock with overtones of early P.J. Harvey ("Dreamlike," and "I'm Alright") with quirky folk-pop”

— Mick Lewis, The Big Takeover
