"...the album radiates in poignancy, yet shimmers in sublime beauty. From the heart-wrenching title track, which serves up an aching does of harsh reality, to the cascading piano that drives the plaintive “Something Pretty,” Where the Fireworks Are is a collection of songs spanning the emotional spectrum. It provides an evocative musical chariot for Christensen to weave her vocal magic."--Brett Leigh-Dicks, VC Reporter
"From angelic folky charm to truly badass bluesy wails and growls...one of the loveliest voices in contemporary music."--John Payne, LA WEEKLY "..an inspired songwriter who has everything it might take to revive the torch song tradition among the rock crowd."-- LA TIMES
