"Jenny Dalton avait alors quelque chose de mystérieux. Une mélancolie persistante se dégageant du piano, une lassitude menaçante séchappant de sa voix et les problèmes relationnels revenant comme un thème incontournable Ce premier album de Jenny Dalton intitulé Fleur de Lily, est déjà un de mes favoris de 2006." - Soit dit en Passant
I find it reassuring when artists don't have to always fit the stylish uber-chic mold and I think she is one that does not. She makes her own. - Indyish.com
