Lara Herscovitch: reviews

"If there was just one word for this album [There] it would be captivating. She’s extraordinarily talented and does so much good that it motivates you to get off your duff and start helping out. Connecticut is a lucky state to have such a wonderful and warm musician and philanthropist in their midst."

"From the first track, it is perfectly clear that this disc is the product of musicians who care deeply about their craft... Herscovitch mixes folk with elements of jazz and Latin rhythms, sung in both English and Spanish, and annoints them with her often sultry vocals that approximate those of Natalie Merchant's... outstanding accompaniment... Herscovitch proves herself to be a prolific force in the singer-songwriter game…”

"...as mutli-faceted as her life - a melodic blend of folk, pop, and Latin styles with smart, snappy bilingual lyrics that range in theme from personal relationships to global issues."

"…her voice remains a constant plus, clear and smooth like expensive liquor."

"Nothing is forced with this sincere performer, and the sound that results is peaceful and pure... Even the songs that describe “only” love, seem somehow deeper and more intellectual because of Lara’s incredible objectivity, honesty and imaginative storytelling. Her voice and instrument are beautiful and are guided by her accomplished songwriting."

"She is not just a pretty face, the more you listen, the more you will like what she does."

"Sin Terra [Editor's Pick]... the Latin answer to the burning question of 'What sounds good today?' Lara’s voice is superb and beautifully sets a course across both Spanish and English lyrics."

"Lara Herscovitch is above and beyond the pack."
