Critic's Quotes for Karen Lovely's STILL THE RAIN

"Even before Koko Taylor's passing, the number of outstanding female blues singers was alarmingly small. Things are looking up due to the emergence of Karen Lovely."DOWNBEAT

"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

"It's a GREAT record!"
Bill Wax, Program Director
B.B. King's Bluesville XM RADIO

"Lovely is a first class vocalist." Art Tipaldi BLUES REVUE

"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, DOWNBEAT
