Adventurous NY vocalist, K.Page, fronts this eclectic band that plays in the dark spaces between jazz and rock._______________________________________________________ _Stuart weaves an eerie vocalise. Deborah Jowitt – The Village Voice ____________________________________________________________ _______________ Ms. Page's Brooklyn group promises a break from robotic indie rock. Page's exictable banshee vocals, part Peggy Lee and part The Nun's Jennifer Miro, are provocative andthe backup music is an amalgam of classic and avant garde jazz, art new music, and rock...individualistic and unusual.Jack Rabid - The Big Takeover ____________________________________________________________ _______________ K. Page and Sleepwalker's Parade's Green City is an album that you might imagine would be worn out on an iPod alongside those of Billie Holiday or Johnny Cash, dare I say, Le Tigre? K. Page's sooty vocals smolder beside subdued electric riffs and a calculated beat.Mabel Greenberg - The Owl Magazine ____________________________________________________________ _______________ Tucked away in some seedy nightclub would be the avant garde vocal jazz group led by K.Page and her glorious spectacle of a voice. The group masterfully weaves carpeted improv jazz with circuitry bent on experimental music….Something that must be explored with gusto.J. Sin - www. Smother.net (Oct 9, 2006) EDITOR’S PICK ____________________________________________________________ _________________ To me, K. Page and Sleepwalker’s Parade can be compared to a fusion of Imogen Heap, Bjork, and Canada’s own Leslie Feist... This is a whole new mood.Sean Chin - www.spillmagazine.com (Feb 8, 2007) ____________________________________________________________ ________________ Through a thick fog of smoke in a musty NYC dive, you’ll find K. Page and the Sleepwalker’s Parade wailing neo-beatnik verse over swinging guitar, bass, and drums. The album shines in its reshaping of Patti Smith-style poetics: Green City blends experimental jazz, rock, and classical influences behind Page’s sometimes sweet, sometimes dark, but always passionate, crooning.Erik Virtanen - Left Hip Magazine (Feb 13, 2007) ____________________________________________________________ ________________ She has a haunting voice that seems simultaneously fragile and menacing...you can’t help being ensnared because Page’s voice lures you like a siren... I would suggest giving them a serious listen: repeatedly.Mark Staudte - Northeast In Tune Magazine
