Praise for Tal Wilkenfeld:
"I can't think of another instrumentalist that has ventured into the area that Tal now has, when it comes to writing and singing songs from her own experience." - Jackson Browne
"the Australian musician is no ordinary singer-songwriter" - Washington Post
"a phenom in a sense she is born to it." - Todd Rundgren
“Her lyrics are deadly serious and very potent, and the sonics favor a lower harmonic range which adds to that sense of darkness, while supporting her voice in a profound way.” – Pete Townshend on Tal's upcoming album
"a consummate force to be reckoned with" - Premier Guitar
