“HEARTSTRINGS WILL BE TUGGED WHEN THE ALT-COUNTRY BALLADEER DRAWLS ALL OVER OUR CITY FOR FOUR NIGHTS, IN SUPPORT OF LAST YEAR’S BLESSED. WITH AMY COOK, WHO COLLABORATES WITH MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO, DAVID GARZA, BEN KWELLER, AND MORE ON HER LATEST, SUMMER SKIN.”
–from the current issue of New York MagazineFor now, the New Yorker is silent.
“This folk and country talent was infamous for lingering between records at the start of her career–taking four, six, eight years at her leisure between albums. Though the momentum has picked up lately–only three years before her excellent most recent disc, “Blessed”. . .–what has not diminished is that she is worth the wait. With Amy Cook.”
–THE NEW YORK TIMES“Celebrated singer-songwriter LW hits NY for a four-night, two-borough stint celebrating last year’s Don Was produced LP Blessed, widely acclaimed as one of the benchmark releases of her acclaimed career. Austinite Amy Cooks plays the opening set each night, sharing songs from a star-studded forthcoming album, Summer Skin.”
–Time Out New YorkWere I able to find a copy of the Village Voice in any of the empty bins, I’d complete the critical quartet.
“Reports from the road indicate that Williams is playing lots of recent stuff on her current U.S. tour, and that’s A-OK.. . Little Honey, from 2008, country-rocked * as hard as she ever has, while last year’s Blessed contained one of her bluesiest ballads in “Born to Be Loved.”

* interesting verb. . .[Unfortunately, this blurb listed the show for Wednesday the 8th, 24/48 hours too early. . .]
