"Even before Koko Taylor's passing, the number of outstanding female blues singers was alarmingly small. Things are looking up, though, due to the emergence of Karen Lovely." - DownBeat
"utterly gripping...stunning musicality..."
- Don Heckman, International Review of Music
"In a seemingly endless cycle of average Blues CDs, Lovely's new album is the brightest spot on the horizon and a good bet to make many a top Blues album list this year. "Still the Rain" is a magnificent album!"
- BluesWax Magazine
"Lovely's voice combines roadhouse grit with a focused emotional clarity all her own. Given superior songs by Dennis Walker and Alan Mirikitani, she's an unstoppable force blasting out of the Pacific Northwest."
- Frank-John Hadley
"It's a GREAT record!" - Bill Wax, XM Radio, B.B. King's Bluesville |
