"...commands your attention...intense,
emotive, hypnotic vocal performances
which instantly elevates them above so many other
bands in this genre...
a multi-textured, musical canvas she skillfully uses to paint dazzling
stories with pure emotion and clever lyrics as her tools...
With lyrics like that it was very easy to
maintain my concentration on the creative and musical potency of this band."

"...upbeat collection ranges across the board of acid jazz territory which includes rock and funk...tight and finely structured with brilliant chords and chord changes laced with intelligent songwriting and strong out in front vocals with Nanyana and her Natalie Merchant meets Sade look…" SLABmusic.com "beautiful, dark-haired vocalist...She's got a nice set of pipes" "serves up blues based guitar rock in the style of Stevie Ray Vaughn, and the rhythm section adds a nice funk groove" "jazz-flavored blues rock in the adult contemporary vein" and Who's To Blame" is a song I wanted to hear over and over again" StarPolish "Vocals are evocative and powerful with lush layered harmonies that contribute a lovely texture. But Nanyana's lead vocals are powerful and wide ranging. Keyboards perfectly compliment the guitar work and crisp percussion provides a rhythmic edge to the material. Who's To Blame is equally evocative; a down-tempo ballad-like track, the whispy vocals show yet another dimension of their lead vocalist...concludes with the jazzy but orchestral ballad You Loving Me, listen for the superb piano solo during the instrumental bridge." Musical Discoveries Six White Horses: "this is rock-n-roll...full of the angst and fury that propelled bands to the top of the heap" Something About You: "contains brilliantly executed vocals and an incredibly well placed guitar solo" "NANYANA instantaneously brings to mind the power of Mother's Finest. . . that brought to bear the finesse of pop, the power of rock-n-blues and the drive of funk..." "the best thing I have heard from the south in a long time." Bottom Line..."this is about as radio ready a batch of songs as I've heard online in quite some time" GodsOfMusic "Six White Horses" with a gutsy guitar riff underpinning the keening vocal of their girl lead singer. Or what about the turbulent jazz funk rock mix of "Change Of Seasons" Lots of diverse music influences without closely resembling anyone, this could possibly be described as alt pop with progressive rock and jazz overtones, but even that doesn't do it. An American band who richly deserves to be heard beyond their home state CrossRhythms (London) |
