"A sophisticated, honey-warm jazz sound like Bellas - and phrasing that would have made Ella nod in admiration......says Stephanie Salter of the San Francisco Chronicle. "A sexy voice, impeccable taste and rare musical instinct add up to make Opie Bellas a jazz singer to treasure." says Octavio Rocca. And Grammy-nominated author James Gavin says, "Opie Bellas makes such an instant emotional connection with her songs that it's hard not to be moved when she sings. At the same time, her voice has a musicality so innate, that she never has to strain to prove it"

The best voice in the business... the world will discover Opie!
author: Rick Cheetham, Cape Town, South Africa
Opie's choice of melodies, her voice and technique, the arrangements and all the musicians are superb. Every song moves me... every song is easy listening... she puts her heart into each and every one. Opie's own composition, MY BROTHER JOHN, in remembrance of her late brother, is very poignant and musical art. This CD is a must for every collection!

Wonderful voice, musicianship, arranging, and style.
author: Don Rossman
We are really enjoying this CD. Opie's voice is silky smooth, and the instrumentation of the band is super. Not often we hear strings with cabaret vocalists. We are impressed with her style and this recording especially.
