“Krista
works her way through another wonderful selection of songs and it’s almost
impossible to choose a favourite track –– her warm, treacly voice and effortless
arrangements make listening to COVER THEIR EYES the aural equivalent of
a long hot bath with candles all around...! I need two copies –– one for
the car and one for home!”

".. Detor
grabs you with her dark, melancholy voice, and a kind of [lyrical] poetry
that is on par with - and these comparisons have been chosen carefully
- Kate Bush or Suzanne Vega... to mention all of the highlights [of Cover
Their Eyes] is an impossible job..." **** (4 stars)
- De
Morgen Newspaper, Belgiumeaven Magazine, .Dec. 2007

piano songs contain more lyrical depth and musical originality than those

“Her
music is a balsam for the soul - the sound, which follows directly after
the silence… Krista Detor ..fantastically paints.. musical pictures of
humans and places, who remain in the memory.

“If
God's very favorite angel got sick of His shit, smoked a pack of Reds,
drank some Jack and Gate-crashed a piano bar, this is how she would sound.
Krista's voice is two parts holy and one part hussy, perfectly complimented
by expert piano work that will leave you wrung-out but ready for more.
I can't say enough about this super-dope soul out of the Indiana outback,
she's the TRUTH!”
