Sounds Like: Album review from TheCelebrityCafe.com http://www.thecelebritycafe.com/cd/full_review/11578.html

- Sensual melodies, and rhythmic beats, define Lindsey Yungs Fusion. The talented singer/songwriters powerful voice strong enough to stand up to the forcefulness of her music. Each song on the album is so wonderful; its hard to distinguish the best tracks. A notable one is Surrender To You, a heartfelt statement of devotion, on which Yung pushes her voice to the limit. Another is Rewind a testament to Yungs songwriting ability and a beautiful tribute to her mother who died in February 2003. The song is deeply personal and opens with an answering machine recording of Yungs late mother. I want the light shown from your room/To seep into mine/I want what was to now resume/and then I will be fine.

FUSION REVIEW FROM INSIDE CONNECTION MUSIC MAGAZINE~

Lindsey Yung immediately caught my attention with her beautiful voice; easily one of the best Ive ever heard. She really knows how to sing, and her voice commands the utmost passion. It is quite apparent at the end of the first song, in which Yung sings alone, "I search for only what is true/So there is love in all I do." The way she sings it makes my body quiver a little.

Most of the songs are soft and calm; a unique mix of acoustic guitar and keyboard sounds and effects. Her voice is easily the most prominent instrument on the album, especially on songs like "Mine Alone" and "Drawn Into You." Her voice really pulls the music along well. Having two college degrees also shows in her lyrics, and her naked honesty is a nice contrast from all the bubble-gum pop stars. "Rewind" is the most personal song on the album, with an intro of her mothers voice in a brief message, then going into an unconventional yet catchy chorus where Yung sings with great sorrow and love.

Every song on this CD is fantastic. The album could have commercial successLindsey Yung has the talent, charisma and passion. I hope to hear more from her in the future.

LINDSEY YUNG: LIVE AT TWIGGS by: Kiki Burnett of SD Music Matters Magazine

TWIGGS coffeehouse is one of those places you read about in books, the kind of place where artsy people meet to have long, interesting talks about politics and poetry and listen to melancholy yet thoughtful music. Where on a cool, fall night you can hear a trail of soft musical footsteps tiptoeing down the street alongside hazelnut coffee aromas. This was the atmosphere for a show that many said touched their souls. Nestled away in a cluster of small shops, Twiggs has a quaint and nostalgic appeal that draws locals as well as people searching to fit into a comfortable niche. Attached to the quiet coffee shop sits a small auditorium where a huge crowd of people sat in aisles, atop others laps, and even on the stage in an effort to listen to Lindsey Yungs vocal theatrics.

Lindsey Yung could be considered one of musics new wave Charlies Angels; her music kicks that much ass. As one of San Diegos must-see acts, Yung really lives up to her title. The crowd grew mute as Yung took the stage. And then it began, a haunting symphonic boom erupted out of Lindsey Yungs doll-like frame. It was unlike anything I had heard before. CD-quality acoustics and poetic verses of love, philosophy, and pain were blending together and forming an unbreakable barrier of music. Lindsey Yung has the stage presence of Stevie Nicks, Janis Joplin, and Madonna if they were all on stage together singing as a trio. Yung is the ideal toward which all singer/songwriters should strive. A girl sitting in front of me cried through almost the whole performance because of the connection she felt with the lyrics to many of the songs. I didnt cry but sat wide-eyed, mouth open through the entire show. I may have eaten a few flies, but I couldnt tell you for sure because I was so taken aback by the beauty of the whole performance. Many of her songs are based on religion and philosophy since she double majored in both at San Diego State. These influences give her songs soul and fuel her performance. Along with Yungs strong songwriting skills, synthesizers, guitar, and soft drum beats help to provide the background music to her lingering lyricsShe usually reserves her acoustic sets for coffee shops and more intimate settings where people come for the music and not the alcohol. And though Lindsey has the talent and motivation to become a trendy new pop star, she continues to remain loyal to her San Diego singer/songwriter roots by staying down here with her large following of fans (myself now included) because the San Diego music scene wouldnt be the same without her.
