Press Raves:
"A soulful, captivating show, with a lush, dark wall of sound behind Atkins' wailing vocals of love gone bad. The audience stood transfixed and some surely joined a growing list of devotees." - Time Magazine "Ten Acts That rocked South By Southwest"
"Poured herself into the dark torch song "Hotel Plaster," praying for a lover's embrace while stuck in a hotel room, then later she was Janis Joplin's big-winded kid sister, wailing on an extended blues solo." - SPIN Selected as "The Best Live Band" of SXSW
"Ms. Atkins has the air of a New York rock chick supreme." - New York Times
"She has a huge, rangy voice flecked with soul that sounds great atop broken-bottle slide blues." - The Los Angeles Times
"Nicole Atkins returns with gripping ferocity on Mondo Amore." - Paste
"A sound that mixes the weepy, swaying balladry of Roy Orbison and the blues-rock of Led Zeppelin and Aerosmith." - New York Times
"If you ever wondered what Kelly Clarkson would sound like channeling Roy Orbison, this big lunged Jersey girl provides the oft-thrilling answer." - SPIN
"A velveteen warmth, longing and sultry vulnerability, Atkins' voice is a corker; as if Loretta Lynn, Stevie Nicks and PJ Harvey were reborn inside a spunky young woman from Neptune." - Sentamentalist
