Amy Jones - Maverick Magazine

"West’s songs are lilting and dreamy and her intimate, country-flavored folk performances seem to float through the air like feathers."

“With Starlight Highway, Corinne West creates another elegant and graceful album. Her melodic and lyrical songs are brought to life with the support of other fine players who are always in service to the songs. In a subtle and often subdued way, Corinne West is of the finest singer/songwriters of the age."”

Eric Alan - KLCC Radio Arts & Culture Host, Eugene OR, 2015

“Corinne West gives us so much within each track. She is an artist full of creativity with music that inspires.”

"A mind blowing set from the voice of an angel, the bar has officially been raised to all comers who think they can top this. Killer stuff that restores any lost luster to the folkie-singer/songwriter mantle.” (Starlight Highway)

Chicago, Midwest Record Review, May 2015

“Corinne West has returned…with a renewed commitment to her musical career, finishing a paradoxical new album that honors her past while looking to the future - a future that includes a new genre she’s invented called “goth grass (Starlight Highway)”

The Atascadero News, April 2015
