notes
Standing in blue light with an old archtop Gibson, breathing a beautiful, wry song into the microphone, she breaks into a wail the likes of which you don't often hear anymore.
"Peg Simone is indeed A Real Thing: Harrowing, passionate rock & roll."
-- Waterfront Week, Brooklyn
"The thinking woman's country torch singer."
-- PULP
"Peg's sultry, languid vocals are perfect for these rock noir songs. The tone and delivery set a mood that keeps you hooked...nuggets with some real sparkle."
-- Indie-Music.com
"Unusual and Brilliant."
--TheFeveredBrainOfRadioMike.com
"Full of surprises and fervor, Peg's sensual lyrics seem to float right behind her guitar riffs...leaves you yearning for much more."
--FM Sound
"At once airy and back alley malevolent...a dark, smoky modus operandi."
-- Pittsburgh City Paper
"Souful and passionate."
--Youngstown Pulse
"An impeccable noir-electric persona, spinning smoky and sultry barroom plaints with a touch of country rootsiness. Her stripped-down, empowered, no-bullshit attitude is more than just a pleasant Maybelline eyeful."
-- In Pittsburgh Newsweekly
"Peg Simone's voice is quite different from any other female singer's"
-- Below the Surface, UK
"Beautiful, melancholy pop that sounds like it's sharing a secret with a best friend."
