“Steering away from familiar Southern blues-funk tropes, Venson copped a bit of Prince’s sexy synth swagger, a welcome addition that kept the music sounding fresh. Another element she’s borrowed from Prince is a sense of casual virtuosity.”

— Rolling Stone

“...fuses electric Hendrix-meets-Prince blues guitar and a panoply of synthesized voices and vibes, eagerly and fluidly passing through genres to never quite call one home.”
