“boot-stomping rhythms and take-no-guff lyrics rich with sly wisdom” Rolling Stone
“Everything about this Whitney Rose set feels more confident, self-assured and assertive than even her impressive earlier releases … Her finest overall album; one that should raise her visibility as one of the most talented rootsy singer/songwriters, of any gender, on the crowded Americana scene.” American Songwriter
“Playfully croons through tales of love and mischief with girlish breath and devilish twang.” Rolling Stone
“Her voice and phrasing may have you reminiscing of classic singers like Bobbie Gentry and Dusty Springfield. That’s mixed with a swagger, self-confidence, and a willingness to rock out. True to her word, she’s doing it her way.” Glide Magazine
