lauren brombert ~ reviews

"It's said great singers can sing the telephone book and make it sound like 'Ave Maria.' Well then, someone hand Lauren Brombert the White Pages."

-Mark Guarino (Daily Herald)

 "Brombert has a smooth, rich alto and she sounds comfortable belting out both the more rock-oriented tunes like 'Waiting' and tender, folkish ballads like the album's closer 'Key to My Heart.' Her lyrics reflect the intelligent and poetic mindset that a lover of languages is bound to possess, and her band features several of Chicago's more prominent musicians, fully capable of bringing her songs to life. All in all, From These Stones is a cool, confident debut."

-Neil Fagan (The Performing Songwriter)

 "Brombert's From These Stones is an easy listen and a solid piece of pop craftsmanship, with genuinely catchy tunes, unimpeachable modern rock performances, and solid lead vocals."

-Daryl Cater (ChicagoGigs.com)

 "Lauren Brombert...has a knack for crafting alluring folk-rock melodies."

-Jim DeRogatis (Chicago Sun-Times)

 "Her vocal sound is alluring, confident, colorful, and expressive. Her songs are innovative and progressive musically, and lyrically as they reflect the depth and experience of this exciting artist...I would highly recommend From These Stones as a listening treasure for anyone who enjoys great alternative music."

-Baabe Irving, producer and keyboardist for Miles Davis (The Chicago Firefly)

"Lauren Brombert definitely has a gift for language and uses it abundantly on her debut disc, From These Stones.

-Ben Likens (Midwest Beat)
