Reviews

Maria Taylor: 20 April 2009 - Chicago

By Lisa Torem

Maria Taylor’s forte is her ability to linger for just the right amount of time, drawing her breath around each image like a child’s bubble wand suspended in mid-air. [10 June 2009]

Taylor is a blues singer of an atypical type, expressing emotions in a calm, controlled fashion, more like most people do on an everyday basis. [29 March 2007]
