“Jude Elliot showcases one of the more fully formed musical visions to find voice in recent times. Jude Elliot offers up a collection of songs that capture the essence of a performer whose gift is the ability to express a broad range of emotions, intimately, honestly, and within a rich musical tapestry. As a singer/songwriter, Elliot blends a finely tuned capacity for lyrical exploration with a voice which is equally adept at traversing the broad canvass she creates.”

"Jude’s style embodies that of the likes of Beth Orton and the more mature side of Madonna and waivers erratically in between to create a varying and distinctive approach of her own.”
