About Me

MOJO **** 'Stirring, mood-shifting, musically inventive, vivid. This is the album that finally puts Wolfe on the map.' Lucy O'BrienUNCUT *** 'A quiet gem. Wolfe's a splendid songwriter. Rather fine.' Nigel WilliamsonMAVERICK 'Stunning miniature dramas and stories and gorgeous vocals.' Laura BethelWORD 'Sensitive singer song writing to warm the cockles.' Jude Rogerswww.FateaMagazine.co.uk 'Not quite belonging but caught up in its momentum..Wolfe seems to capture that emotion and turn it into a narrative and ultimately a song. She's got a knack for hitting the mark on both sides of the desk. ' Neil Kingwww.New-Noise.net 'A flawless exercise in modern art that boasts enough melody to make this as warm and approachable as possible whilst being unafraid to offer an olive branch to the musos; stunning. ' Tom Bramptonwww.Netrhythms.co.uk 'A sophomore release where her Mike Leigh/ken Loach sensibilities remain sharp. A formidable eccentric talent. 'Mike Davieswww.ToxicPete.co.uk 'LEMON is right up there with the big albums of our time...a real contender, one of the 'must have' albums of the year.'The Irish World 'She confounds the well worn stereotype of what a female singer is and should be. An intriguing album full of exquisitely told stories. LEMON looks set to make its own unique mark on the music world. 'Shelley MarsdenThe Irish Post 'A stirring collection of tunes...Paula is a self proclaimed one-man band of the most modern kind. 'Fiona AudleyBBC Norfolk Introducing 'Up and coming star.' David Kellar Full interview can be heard on www.bbc.co.uk/norfolkintroducingEastern Daily Press 'Polished, heartfelt collection but there's steel underneath that sweet exterior with Wolfe's lyrics going to unexpected places.'Trevor Heatonwww.myspace.com/Streetvoice 8.5/10 'Musically spot but the best part is Paula Wolfe's voice...amazing ...I'm surprised she isn't a mega star in this country. 'Steve DIYwww.adriandenning.co.uk 4/5 'Remarkably fresh.,.the lyrics really do raise this above other musical wallpaper...quiet and intelligent.'www.hotdigits.co.uk 'All this album needs is one song to get some airplay and Paula Wolfe will become much more widely known as she has the songs to back her undoubted vocal talent.' Jason RitchieZeitgeist 'A rather accomplished set...interesting songs and arrangements lift the album into the realms of the very good.' Stuart A. Hamiltonwww.rock-city.co.uk 'Textured, well produced and Wolfe has a beautiful voice. The story telling nature of the tracks make them resonate in your consciousness.' Greg Thomaswww.thebeatsurrender.co.uk 'Her production, song writing and construction are excellent.. It’s quite rare to hear about female producers and I’m pretty sure she would find her services in demand if she offered them. 'Kevwww.music.entertainment-focus.com 'Lemon is a solid album and will no doubt solidify Wolfe's live following.'Download on iTunes.comBuy CD on Amazon and www.paulawolfe.co.uk
