Some Raves: "Mockingbird is a gem!"
-Bob Harris, BBC Radio2
***
"...contributions from Gene Parsons, Tift Merritt, Marshall Crenshaw and other well-known musicians. However, they're superfluous here. The star is clearly Sally Spring. Her glorious alto voice transfixes you whether performing an original, a traditional or one by Gram Parsons."
- Rich Warren, Sing Out!
***
"...striking results can be heard on Mockingbird, ... Sally's inviting voice ...(her) first-rate compositions..."
-No Depression
***
"Soulful and gritty, Mockingbird is the latest from North Carolina veteran, Sally Spring. Her voice is perfect for these folk tales"
--Uncut, U.K. -
***
"Her vocal phrasing is unique and pleasing with a voice so rich and full that there is always more to discover as you listen over and over. She's a treasure." -Gene Parsons (Byrds)
