When sparks
fly features songs described as
“a lovely, haunted moment,” and “very
Kurt Weill"
“A dynamic, electric record
... as uncommon as these things get ... a phenomenal
vocal” - Anna Maria Stjärnell, Collected
Sounds.com
“Powerful, sensual, compelling –
this CD is truly riveting.
The term "cabaret" is dependant on an
intimate communication between the musicians and
the audience, and A Little Friction easily achieves
that kind of rapport with a glam-rock edge.
There's nothing formulaic or cliché about
this wonderful collection of songs: they're theatrical,
fun, emotional, accessible, dark, light.”
- KT Hall, CDBaby
“Get thee to a stadium!!!!”
- Rhona Alexander, CDBaby
