“One of the purest, most affecting voices to emerge in recent years, combining the smooth jazz sophistication of Carmen Lundy with the tempered-steel soulfulness of Anita Baker or Randy Crawford…a skilled and thoughtful lyricist, adding unusually cogent words to Wayne Shorter’s ‘Footprints’ and Herbie Hancock’s ‘Butterfly.’ A talent to watch.”
– Chris Parker, The London Times
“One of the jazz scene’s best kept secrets…[Secrets is] well worth hearing, notably for ‘L’Altra Notte In Fondo Al Mare’ (an aria from Boito’s Mephistopheles), where freebop meets opera with astonishing results.”
– Stanley Péan, All About Jazz
“Secrets is anything but a typical jazz vocalist’s debut recording. Tricia uses her voice like an instrument, becoming part of the band, and her distinctive, assured musicality is evident on every track.”
– Bird Lives
“Tricia Tahara is amongthe most exciting of the new upcoming recording stars.”
