Sheila Wilcoxson
"This little-known Portland, Ore., singer has the
most beautiful voice in blues today. Blessed with a stunning four-octave
range, she blends sweetness with the soulful feel of classic blues divas. On
this acoustic album, she nimbly moves from deep-voiced gospel to sexy torch
songs."
- Art Levin - U.S. News & World Report
"Terry
Robb's understated production keeps Wilcoxson's quiet presence and wonderful
instrumentation at the forefront. Her voice is oh so effective, whether
interpreting "John the Revelator" or the more contemporary
"Testosterone Poisoning."
- Blues Access
"Wilcoxson's
sweet, ethereal vocals are perfectly suited to this type of
country/folk/blues hybrid. However, the singer's four-octave range also
allows her to get down and dirty on tunes that demand more grit, such as
"Biscuit Roller." If you like the music of Rory Block, early Bonnie
Raitt or Colorado newcomer Vicki Taylor, you'll find much to enjoy on
Backwater Blues."
