KRISTEN VIGARD: God, Loves and Angels

Vigard’s angelic, shimmering voice serves to uplift
and inspire. This acoustic pop-folk invites repeated
listenings. You’ll be treated to several songs from
her “God Loves and Angels” CD, all perfectly arranged,
produced and performed. “The End of Time” is an
entrancing number with a breathtaking vocal. Her
interpretation of Neil Young’s “Old Man” brings a soft
new texture to the song.
"God, Loves and Angels" Review: Indie Hot 100
"Kristen Vigard has a soothing sweet vocal...reminds me of the fascinating intimacy Karen Carpenter had in her voice... also musically this CD is very interesting... with fine easy listening orchestral arrangements...here and there backed by seventies Burt Bacharach melodies...her song "God Give Me Strength" is a masterpiece useable for any romantic or melancholy film, it would have fit perfectly in Barbara Streisand's and Liza Minnelli's repertoire in their glory days, but Kristen presents it with a link to the music of today."

Kristen Vigard Fan Comment:
"I've been listening to your voice since I was a child,when the incredible "Grace of My Heart" soundtrack made me curious as a singer performer. Now I am glad to learn a little more about you and your music... I am anxiousto have your last album.

Thanx a lot for inspiring me.

Kristen Vigard Fan Comment:
Seriously hard-won respect and praise from the chronically lyrical obsessed. In less lofty terms,lady ,you rock. I am enjoying "God, Loves and Angels"also.It strikes a beautiful, hypnotic balance between folk and etheral sounds. In consideration of your talent the notion that your sum total solo offerings (not counting contributions elsewhere) comprise a mere 2 ,or maybe 1 and a half albums,is staggering. In the context of musical history...If this body of work was all you ever did- it is enough.So yes I thank God. But I thank you too.

Take care ,

Heidi
