Album Notes

SALE -- SALE -- SALE -- $2.00 off -- SALE -- SALE"...she can belt out melodies with the best of them. Her voice has the soul of Janis Joplin's, the viciousness of Courtney Love's, and the strength of Whitney Houston's... not overtly angry, it has that oh-so-appealing rebel effect that merely enhances its originality... is not only one of the most accomplished unsigned bands, but hands down one of the most impressive I've ever reviewed." www.Indie Music.com "...commands your attention...intense, emotive,hypnotic vocal performances...a multi-textured,musical canvas...pure emotion and cleverlyrics...creative and musical potency..." www.Muses Muse.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.comSix 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" www.godsofmusic.com "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.com (London) [lnk]"http://www.nanyana.com/NanyaNaOPK.html"]Online Press Kit[/lnk]
