“Take the Greyhound to Nashville Stephanie Fagan and conquer the world!”

“It's hot, ridiculously hot, and it’s Monday. What the world needs today is some dirty dobro work and a voice that could stop traffic. Enter Stephanie Fagan...”

“It's music like a warm blanket around you, turn and do beg for more”

“Singer-songwriter Stephanie Fagan appreciates her Florence roots - An Interview”

“Florence musicians to play Americana Music Festival in Nashville”

“Florence singer Stephanie Fagan to hold album release party at Clay Pot”

“Then came the Belle of the Ball, and I have to say Stephanie’s voice is amazing. You’re probably saying I say that about everyone, but I don’t. Stephanie’s voice is really something special (a little like a cross between Adele and Sarah McLachlan, if you ask me), and I think anyone who’s ever been in love (or even unlucky in love) can definitely identify with her lyrics.”

“(Stephanie Fagan) is completely unknown, but responsible for the best female singer-songwriter album of the year.”

“(Stephanie) has a whispery and smoky voice and the first few songs are delivered with an airy acoustic guitar and mandolin to the fore giving the album the sense and feel of early Joni Mitchell.”

“(Stephanie Fagan) gets away with all styles and songs, with not so much a confident voice, but a modestly exposed knowledge that gives each style exactly the voice it needs.”

“This is a really good album of reflective songs built around various aspects of love, but what lifts it above average is Stephanie’s lovely distinctive vocals. Add this to her excellent songwriting and ability to construct some catchy melodies and we can look forward with optimism to her next album, and the next ……. !”

“Heart Thief is a sympathetc, kept small picture of a musician who has no qualms about letting others deep into her sould to look. (translated from Dutch)”

“A voice possessed of both a down-home earnestness and a jazzy lightness both comforts and compels”

“Versatile enough to balance her folk and country inspirations without leaning towards too much on either of them, Fagan is a definite crossover musician, among the few who can do so without any trace of self-consciousness.”

“Though their voices are not similar at all, the first time I heard her sing My Old Man, she caught me the same way Janis Joplin did when I first heard her on the radio. That instant feeling that there is something deeper here worth listening to.”

“This song is stalking me. It follows me to bed. It finds me in the shower. I can’t get away from it. It is intoxicating. Fagan’s voice is reminiscent of Natalie Merchant with a slight twang.”

“Her honeyed voice brings the songs a gentle, almost melancholy way”

“After an initial spin, there is no doubt as to why singer/songwriter Stephanie Fagan has named her latest album Heart Thief. Lyrical content aside, it’s what Fagan will do to new listeners; her crystalline voice flows with honeyed sweetness and wintry melancholy. The music on Heart Thief effortlessly slides between genres, from folk to acoustic pop to Americana but it is the haunting ache in her singing that stitches these diverse threads together. From the rootsy balladry of “Beautiful Man” to the atmospheric Beth Orton-ish moodiness of “Prodigal” to the old-school country twang of “Sweethearted,” Fagan easily robs listeners of their pulse.”

“Stephanie Fagan "Heart Thief" voted #1 in 2011 by fans of Country Fried Rock - Combine the voice of Natalie Merchant with a hint of Jewel’s yodel, and you have Stephanie Fagan. Stephanie Fagan’s record, “Heart Thief” slinks out like a stealthy cat, and pounces on you with her sensuous vocals.”

“Stephanie's voice needs no "fairy dust" to bring forth meaning beyond her lyrics. Her live performance, whether backed by a full band, in an acoustic duo, or just with her guitar, remains true to the recording yet stands on its own. If you enjoy her live, you will appreciate the album, and vice versa. Heart Thief accurately reflects songwriting to which many people can relate and enjoy.”
