Other people say this:
"In one of her original pieces, “I’ll Fall Away,†she sings, “You can take it or leave it.†The feel of that song might be longing, but Ms. Christian’s delivery has the well-earned confidence of a woman who expects her audience to take it."--- NY TIMES
"Singer-songwriter Heather Christian has a haunting way with lyrics, an unforgettable voice that somehow bridges Carol Channing and Joanna Newsom, and a wise-waif presence that intrigues...an ambitious performer."--TIME OUT NY
"Christian howls like a werewolf with a voice made of molasses"--
VARIETY MAGAZINE
"....a surprisingly moving event. At the center of it all is the angelic Christian, who delivers a mesmerizing performance that is both intimate and powerful."-- BACKSTAGE MAGAZINE
"Christian's voice is like a crazed rubber band — its capacity to bend, stretch, and snap is consistently surprising. Her five-piece band is reassuringly confident, performing Christian's strange and special new-music compositions with the stage chops of a seasoned rock band." - FLAVORPILL.COM
"lemme tell ya, that Heather Christian is something else. And I mean that in a good way. Every once in a while you see someone perform and you’re like, “Yep. This one’s gonna take off.†She’s one of them." WWW.CULTUREBOT.COM
