Anny Celsi: Home
"The best album of the last five years!" - Terry Rawlings, author of "Who Killed Christopher Robin?"
Al Kooper’s ‘Cream of Musical Crop’ (Boston Herald)
-- "I’m a fan!” – Al Kooper
“… Byrdsian jangle and exquisite psyche-pop harmonies perfect for a long car ride…Fans of classic sixties pop influences should pick this one up right away.” – Aaron Kupferberg, Powerpopaholic
“Had I been able to give it a proper listen sooner, it definitely would have earned a place in my 2009 year-end top 10… The one constant that ties the package together is Anny Celsi’s beautifully expressive voice, which is at once sweet and soulful, with a depth and richness that eludes many singers. ” -- John Borack, Goldmine
“… a glorious and lovingly crafted tribute to an era that continues to resonate to this day. In an age of throwaway dance anthems and cookie-cutter R’n’B, it is refreshing to have dedicated artists and musicians remind us of the beauty and wonder of what pop music once was in its heyday. That such wondrous music can still be re-created in our modern times gives me hope and encouragement for the future.” –Kevin Mathews, Bucketfull o’ Brains
"Think of Victoria Williams, Aimee Mann, Suzanne Vega and Sheryl Crow mixed together and you begin to get the picture...Anny is pretty much their equal as a songwriter."
-- S.P. Clarke, Two Louies
"...a beatnik-cool performer who veers from poppy, bouncy beats to jazzy piano bar riffs and sexy come-ons... she’s sensitive but no wimp and a fellow traveler to Aimee Mann and Sheryl Crow. The “pop-noir” soundtrack of her solo debut, “Little Black Dress,” wears a veneer of L.A. Confidential style." -- Bob Ruggiero, Houston Press
