Natalia Zukerman
Mortal Child
guitar-driven melodies and lilting voice. songs that get under your skin and into your toes.
"Smart, roomy....Natalia Zukerman's wise-beyond-her-years debut is simply in no hurry to win you over by force. Instead, Zukerman allows listeners to come to her at their own pace with her roomy arrangements, prose-style phrasing, and the come-hither sultriness of her slinky, earthy vocals. It's a record that seems to want play hard-to-get- and you know that drives you crazy. From the moody trip-hop of "If You're Going to Try," to the two-step, Nashville detour of "Dancing Shoes," Zukerman flirts with different genres throughout Mortal Child. Zukerman brims with confidence. And you know that drives you crazy, too." -Performing Songwriter (May/June 2002)

Debra Arlyn
Thinking Out Loud
Debra's not just another female singer/songwriter. Her incredible voice combined with her fresh songwriting creates an unique album with both catchy pop/rock songs and intimate ballads.
"There is something about the way she sings, something in her melismatic style of pop and R&B, something about the purity of her emotion when giving herself away on stage, something about the way she gets lost in a song ... yes, there’s something to lead a lot of smart music business people to believe this 20-year-old diva-in-training just might have “it.” " - The News Gaurd
"Arlyn has the pipes and the point-of-view of a more mature songwriter.Each of the tunes we heard...is a catchy mainstream pop song subtly infused with R&B. Let's say it's a cross between Keys and Aguilera, with the vocals far less showy-offy than the latter. This young artist out of Oregon...is working at a high level and seems ripe for major label interst." LA's Music Connection Magazine
