Tom Goss
- "toe tapping and head bobbing..."Rise" is easily one of the best releases this year [in DC] and a great introduction to a man who has a lot to say and a wonderful way to say it." – DC Acoustic Underground (April 2008)
- "Lot's of energy and a diverse use of instrumentation, including horns and harmonica. Sometimes upbeat, other times dreamy and melodic." – On Tap Magazine (February 2008)
- "craft draws comparisons to the Beatles ( A Thousand Times Before ) and Rufus Wainwright ( King of Something Right)" – Windy City Times (January 2008)
The Heat Birds
Stella and the Heat Birds is an acoustic ensemble with an eclectic mix of vocal and musical styles. With instrumentation that is a hallmark of true Chicago Alt/Americana outfits, the Heat Birds incorporate clarinet, trombone, ukulele, accordion, and upright bass into their performances. Led by sultry jazz vocalist Stella, they seamlessly merge American musical styles of the past one hundred years and make them their own. They have performed at Scott Free's ALT Q festival, and have opened for Ruthie Foster at the Old Town School of Folk Music, and Etta James and Melissa Ferrick at Milwaukee Pridefest.
